Proceeding contribution from Lord Tebbit (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 8 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.
European Union Bill
May I assume, therefore, that in defence of parliamentary sovereignty and all that of which he has been speaking, my noble friend will assert the right of Parliament, and none other, to decide whether prisoners should have any voting rights at all? Will he be on side in this matter or will he defer to some agency outside Parliament?
