Has my hon. Friend noticed paragraph 4.57, in which the commission comments specifically on the assertion in the White Paper that the present system"““both devalues the integrity of the electoral system in the eyes of the public and acts as a disincentive to vote in constituency elections””?"
Did she note that the commission commented that it"““is not convinced that there is any evidence to support the claims made regarding these perceived problems. There is no survey evidence to suggest that dual candidacy is an issue for voters, or a disincentive to their participation in the political process””?"
