Proceeding contribution from Bishop of Durham (Bishops (affiliation)) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 24 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill.


Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill

Would the noble Lord, Lord Bach, not agree that, in the light of what has been said—not least by the noble Lord, Lord Rooker—there is a strong case to be made for having more than two options on the referendum paper? Having just two options would seem to close us in in a way that several speakers have said would be undesirable.
