Proceeding contribution from Baroness Taylor of Bolton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 5 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Political and Constitutional Reform.


Political and Constitutional Reform

Given the Government’s new-found enthusiasm for a two-thirds threshold for a Dissolution of Parliament, will there be a threshold in the referendum? Will two-thirds of the country have to vote yes in the referendum? Will there be a threshold in the turnout of the electorate before the referendum has any validity?
