Proceeding contribution from Lord Brennan of Canton (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 June 2010. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Constitution and Home Affairs.

Having failed to get any sort of answer out of the Government, does my right hon. Friend have any theory about why they arrived at the figure of 55%?
