Clause 1 - Electoral regions in the United Kingdom
European Parliament (Representation) Bill
5:45 pm
Mr William Cash (Stone, Conservative)
I share the hon. Gentleman's concern. As I understand it, the Joint Committee on Human Rights has been considering the matter. I do not know whether the hon. Gentleman is on the Committee, but I know from a colleague who is that the issue has been raised as a serious point. We need to pursue the matter in the House from the point of view of the interests of the House as a whole.
