Debate

House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill

Contribution

During our current discussions from their Benches, the noble Lord, Lord Newby, along with my noble friend Lord Hailsham and others from different groups and parties are in favour of the Cross-Bench amendments tabled by the noble Earl, Lord Devon, and the noble Lord, Lord Anderson of Ipswich; these being through an appointments commission to increase the numbers of non-political Members in the House.
