Political Parties and Elections Bill

My intervention will be extremely brief. I did not table an amendment to this effect, but does the noble Lord, Lord Tyler, agree that, on the principle of the difference between "and" and "or", the meaning of subsection (1) would be clearer if it said, ""parliamentary elections and local elections and European elections"?" The omission of the "and" introduces a slight element of ambiguity and requires the reader to read it at least three times before he knows what the noble Lord is trying to say.
