Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 31 January 2024. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Political Parties, Elections and Referendums.


Political Parties, Elections and Referendums

Regulating the water industry, with the Government quite rightly having a view about how our water purity, sewerage and so on should be controlled, is completely different from the Government interfering in how an independent Electoral Commission should carry out its operations.
