Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 November 2010. It occurred during Legislative debate on Constitutional Law.
Constitutional Law
The Minister said that he did not envisage a time when local government elections, Scottish Government elections and even an election to this place would coincide, but if there is a sequence of five years and four years, that situation will eventually occur. Given the chaos that occurred when two elections were combined in Scotland, what provision has been made in the order to avoid such a clash, or will there be a count system lasting three or four days?
