CITIZENS' CONVENTION BILL

Early day motion 1763, tabled 25 June 2007 by Julia Goldsworthy (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 104 members.

That this House notes the expressed desire of the rt. hon. Member for Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath to `build a shared national consensus for a programme of constitutional reform'; believes that a participative process for achieving that consensus and involving citizens more directly in democratic decision-making is required as a matter of urgency; and therefore supports the Citizens' Convention Bill, sponsored by a cross-party group of hon. Members, which would require the establishment of that process.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 48, Labour 44, Conservative 4, Independent 2, Plaid Cymru 2, Social Democratic and Labour Party 2, DUP 1, Independent Labour 1.
