European Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from Charles Kennedy (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on European Union Bill.
The argument that the Minister is very fairly advancing is reinforced by what the Electoral Commission said in advance of today's proceedings. Its task and statutory duty in issuing a certificate following an election has to be based on a proper definition of the size of the electorate and what constitutes turnout. Does the Minister agree that the amendments add no clarity whatever to that?
