Proceeding contribution from Lord Dholakia (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 10 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on Commonwealth: Democracy and Development.


Commonwealth: Democracy and Development

My Lords, I support what the noble Lord, Lord Howell, has said, and I am not simply talking about new legislation. I do not think we are talking about excluding any Members, as we are very proud of the contribution that people make to this House. What has been the retrospective implication of the decisions that have been taken so far in terms of membership of Members of the Lords who may not have been entitled to sit in the House?
