Proceeding contribution from Bernard Jenkin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 April 2017. It occurred during Select Committee statement on EU Referendum: Lessons Learned.
EU Referendum: Lessons Learned
I ask the hon. Gentleman: why stop at 16? Why not 14 or 12? These are subjective judgments made by different bodies in different parts of the constitution. That franchise is a devolved matter; it is a matter for the Scottish Parliament. Personally, I favour maintaining the status quo in the UK.
