Proceeding contribution from Lord McNally (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill.


Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

It is precisely the words that he used: ““if self-regulating is to survive””. He knows, as would anybody who has managed this House’s business, that if Bills are treated as this Bill has been treated, government is impossible. If self-regulation is to survive, this cannot be the normal procedure for the Opposition of the day. That is not a threat; it is an observation.
