Proceeding contribution from Lord Tyler (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 1 May 2012. It occurred during Debate on select committee report on Draft House of Lords Reform Bill.


Draft House of Lords Reform Bill

The noble Lord is really kind, but it was quite clear from the discussion—and of course he was not present—that that was intended to refer to a referendum on the Government’s proposals. I have always said, in common with most of the other decisions taken by this country in referenda, that they should be post-legislative. That was what I was referring to very clearly in my speech today.
