House of Lords Reform Bill [HL]

Debate between Lord Shutt of Greetland and Lord Selsdon

Friday 10th February 2012 Lords Chamber

[Lord Selsdon]

I therefore feel slightly confused by the Long Title as regards where it says “hereditary peerage” and we still have the election process in place. If it is correct, I have no objection.

[Lord Shutt of Greetland]

Is the noble Lord moving an amendment?

[Lord Selsdon]

Yes, I was moving an amendment but I was asking for clarification. I apologise for that. Can anyone in the House give me some clarification?

Debate between Lord Shutt of Greetland and Lord Selsdon

[Lord Shutt of Greetland]
