Commons Bill [Lords]

If I can enlighten the hon. Gentleman—I am speaking from memory—I believe that the constitution said that the membership would be between 10 and 12, of which five or six would be commoners and the rest would have other interests. If that will be the number, it will not leave a great deal of room for elected members, for example, and it will not allow for a sufficient majority in favour of the commoners.
