Proceeding contribution from Iain Stewart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 November 2010. It occurred during Legislative debate on Constitutional Law.


Constitutional Law

I hope that I can be helpful. In the general election in May this year, my count was combined with that for another election. There was no problem at all in verifying the boxes first, and the odd stray ballot paper was easily allocated to the correct count. I hope that that example helps to allay any fears that Opposition Members may have.
