Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

First, I welcome greatly the fact that someone on the other side is actually participating properly in the debate—genuinely debating and listening to the debate. I can reassure him. Just in case the Government are preparing to say, ““We cannot work out, or we do not know, what the notional figure, or the actual electorate, is””, how can they say that 91 per cent are registered here, or 85 per cent are registered there? There is no way of calculating the percentage unless they know the number of people eligible to vote.
