As tempted as I am to comment on the hon. Gentleman’s points, I shall leave that for another debate.
Amendment No. 110 is precisely about consultation. I am expressing my personal views to the Committee. The hon. Member for Chesham and Amersham (Mrs. Gillan) talks about e-mails and other hon. Members mention letters and a lack of consultation, but the amendment would allow us to find out people’s opinions. I am not prepared to listen to the Electoral Commission so that it can make up my mind on what the people of Wales think. There should be a properly co-ordinated and constituted consultation on the nature of our electoral system. That might result in agreement with the system that we have. I simply say that if a system is not understood, it is not a good system.
