I thank the Minister for introducing the motion about this important appointment. We believe that Professor Stephens appears to be a very good and proper choice for the role, and we are happy to support the motion.

Question put and agreed to.

Resolved,

That the Committee has considered the motion, That the Motion in the name of Mr David Lidington relating to the appointment of Professor Elan Closs Stephens as an Electoral Commissioner shall be treated as if it related to an instrument subject to the provisions of Standing Order No. 118 (Delegated Legislation Committees) in respect of which notice of a motion has been given that the instrument be approved.
