House of Lords Reform

I want to deal with the issue of election. There was no agreement in the cross-party group about the method of election. The Conservatives favoured large, first-past-the-post constituencies on the old European election model and the Liberal Democrats favoured multi-member single transferable vote constituencies. The Government said that we favoured"““a partially open regional list system””." That system was favoured by a majority of the Wakeham royal commission.
