Proceeding contribution from Lord Elton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Friday, 21 October 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on House of Lords Reform Bill [HL].


House of Lords Reform Bill [HL]

I may well be wrong, because my Latin is rather out of date now, but I think that the root of the word is the same as that for ““senex””, which means an old man. That is very appropriate to this House.
