MAKE VOTES COUNT CAMPAIGN

Early day motion 592, tabled 28 April 1999 by Lord Cryer (Labour). Signed by 30 members.

That this House notes recent articles in the Tribune newspaper regarding the decision by the Make Votes Count campaign to appoint lobbyists Lawson Lucas Medelson to run its public relations; is alarmed that LLM is not a member of the Association of Professional Political Consultants and is therefore not bound by its ethical code; and condemns LLM's threat to legal action against the Amalgamated Engineering and Electrical Union as an attempt to suppress debate on electoral reform.

Signatures by party: Labour 27, Conservative 1, Labour/Co-operative 1, Unknown 1.
