Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill.

Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

In that case, will the hon. Lady explain why somebody might have said this at the Oxfordshire boundary inquiry in 2003:"““Somebody might take the view that…there are already too many Members of Parliament at Westminster. They may take the ""view, depending on what happens in the European constitution, that Westminster has less to do, with less MPs – I certainly hope that is not the case””?" That was the right hon. Member for Witney (Mr Cameron).
