Proceeding contribution from Lord Strathclyde (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on House of Lords Reform Bill.


House of Lords Reform Bill

My Lords, the White Paper does not rule it out because it does not mention it. I am not quite sure what the noble Lord intends by it; there are so many different models for indirect election, but the White Paper is very much in favour of giving a direct vote to elect Members of this House.
