Proceeding contribution from Lord McCabe (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill.
Police reform and social responsibility Bill
There is an issue about money, but does my right hon. Friend share my concern that in the past the Government have resisted setting a threshold for the elections? Holding them in November is, as we heard, likely to depress the turnout. What level of turnout would give a new commissioner legitimacy—for example, in the west midlands, with a population of 5 million?
