Middle Level Bill

Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 28 February 2018. It occurred during Debate on bills on Middle Level Bill.

With regard to whether people are representative or appear to be so to the commissioners, perhaps the commissioners might fear that there could be some kind of legal action on the basis of whether and how someone could be determined to be representative—that somebody might say, “Well, I don’t think these people are representative of X, Y and Z”—and so a qualification was put in to help to get them out of a potentially sticky situation. Does my hon. Friend think that that is why the amendment was worded as it was?
