House of Lords Reform Bill [HL]
First Reading
A Bill to make provision for the appointment of a commission to make recommendations to the Crown for the creation of life peerages; to restrict membership of the House of Lords by virtue of hereditary peerage; to make provision for permanent leave of absence from the House of Lords; to provide for the expulsion of Members of the House of Lords in specified circumstances; and for connected purposes.
Lord Steel of Aikwood
Despite debating this twice already, I now move that this Bill be read a first time.
The Bill was introduced by Lord Steel of Aikwood, read a first time and ordered to be printed.
