Proceeding contribution from Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 1 February 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

The key word that the noble Lord quoted is ““may””. It gives a discretion to the Government as to what they reimburse, so the matter is not as open as he thinks.
