Proceeding contribution from Lord Maclennan of Rogart (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 9 December 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Scottish Parliament (Elections etc.) Order 2010.


Scottish Parliament (Elections etc.) Order 2010

I wonder if the noble and learned Lord would accept that a short guide could, in its appendix, refer to the relevant provisions of law, but that the guide itself need not be an expression of the law; it is simply a guide. A lot of lay people who are not lawyers have to understand the basic rules. These are obscure and cannot be easily abstracted from this document.
