Mr Frank Cook (Stockton North, Labour)
I remind the Committee that with this we are discussing amendment No. 4, in
clause 2, page 2, line 14, at end insert—
'(3A) Before including in a pilot order provisions for voting at places other than polling stations, the Secretary of State must consult all affected local authorities, and must not make such an order about a place in a local authority area if the local authority affected objects to it.'.
