Clause 11 - Supplementary
Regional Assemblies (Preparations) Bill
6:30 pm
Mr Christopher Leslie (Parliamentary Secretary, Cabinet Office; Shipley, Labour)
I am afraid that I cannot answer that, although information is winging its way to me, I think, to state that it will not. Subsection (3) ensures that there will not be a requirement to identify the promoter and publisher of documents such as the notice of poll and ballot papers, which are required under the 2000 Act. Subsections (4) and (6) are concerned with the definition of enactment, and how it should mean the same in this Bill as in part 7 of the 2000 Act. Subsection (5) states that the 2000 Act means the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000. Subsection (7) ensures that the provisions that I have just mentioned apply only to part 1. I hope that that is helpful.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 11 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
