FUNDING OF POLITICAL PARTIES

Early day motion 1176, tabled 20 March 2007 by Dai Davies (Independent). Signed by 7 members.

That this House believes that it is premature to implement the proposals put forward by Sir Hayden Phillips in his report on the funding of political parties and election expenditures; regards it as essential to democracy that no final decision is taken on these proposals until a wide-ranging, consensually agreed public consultation is held on the proposals; and calls upon Ministers to present to Parliament detailed proposals for such consultation.

Signatures by party: Conservative 4, Plaid Cymru 2, Independent 1.
