Proceeding contribution from Lord Howarth of Newport (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 12 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill.
Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill
I am looking at the Explanatory Notes to Clause 10 of the Bill. It seems to be very clear that discretion is left to the Secretary of State in laying, "““before Parliament a draft of an Order in Council for giving effect to the recommendations in the boundary reports””," to accept or not to accept the modifications that the Boundary Commission may wish.
