Clause 4 - Electoral commission report
European Parliamentary and Local Elections (Pilots) Bill
3:15 pm
Mr Tom Harris (Glasgow Cathcart, Labour)
I am grateful for the chance to help the hon. Gentleman out of the hole he dug for himself. Does he believe that if a Government create a commission—for example, the boundary commission-—it is, by definition, not independent? That seems to be the point of his argument.
