Debate

House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill

Contribution

Amendment 51 seeks to ensure that, at least for the Cross Benches, HOLAC will have a consistent and lasting contribution to the non-political composition of your Lordships’ House. It would at least ensure that a fair number of new Members in the years ahead were free of patronage and would have endured the rigorous approval process of HOLAC.
