Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour Independent) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 29 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on House of Lords Reform.

The political parties all took legal advice before they drafted their three manifestos as to whether their words would cover them in the event of the Parliament Act being used. That was the case and it is why they are so similarly drafted. The noble Lord, Lord Desai, deserves an answer to his question tonight.
