Record Copies of Acts

Proceeding contribution from Michael Ellis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 April 2016. It occurred during Backbench debate on Record Copies of Acts.

Does my hon. Friend agree that it is not just the laws of the land that are printed on vellum? Such things as the Torah scrolls that are used by members of the Jewish community are printed on vellum. If the sole provider of vellum in this country were forced to close because of the House of Lords stopping our use of vellum, that might inconvenience other people and force them to

source their items from outside this country—assuming that they are not already doing so, which they might well be.
