European Union (Referendum) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Chris Williamson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 29 November 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on European Union (Referendum) Bill.

I was thinking, “Hold on, did I put another zero in my amendment?” I clearly did not. There is a danger of the figure being inflated, so I accept what my hon. Friend says, but none the less I feel that it is important to give this incentive to the British people. Having heard all the arguments, I think that most people would want to participate in any event. The penalty would not be imposed on people who have a valid reason not to participate.
