This is an agreement made in good faith for the proper functioning of the House and the Official Opposition. As I said when I was giving evidence to the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee prior to the last general election, I believe that this House works best when we adhere to the conventions of the House and that the two main parties are of a similar size. After the end of this Session, no Peer will be a Member of this House purely on the basis of a hereditary right.
