CITIZENS CONVENTION (ACCOUNTABILITY AND ETHICS) BILL

Early day motion 1573, tabled 2 June 2009 by Martin Caton (Labour). Signed by 155 members.

That this House is concerned at the current crisis of confidence regarding the political system; maintains that electors and not just politicians should be involved in initiating change; therefore supports the Citizens Convention (Accountability and Ethics) Bill; and believes that this measure should become law expeditiously and so calls for sufficient additional time to be made available in the House to achieve that end.

Signatures by party: Labour 70, Liberal Democrat 56, Conservative 18, Independent 3, Plaid Cymru 3, Independent Labour 1, Respect 1, Scottish National Party 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1, UUP 1.
