to
This bill proposes to extend voting rights for the House of Lords, meaning more people would be allowed to vote in House of Lords elections. Currently, very few people can vote for House of Lords members, so this bill aims to make the system more democratic by widening who gets a say.
Presented by Lord Dubs
supported by Stephen Pound.
