HC Deb 31 March 1938 vol 333 c2167
28. Mr. Day

asked the Home Secretary whether it is proposed to introduce and pass into law during the present Parliament any measure of voting reform for application at the next General Election?

Sir S. Hoare

If the hon. Member has in mind some change in the Parliamentary franchise, the introduction of such legislation is not in contemplation.

Mr. Day

Are we to understand that nothing has happened as a result of the recommendations of the Committee which sat under the chairmanship of Lord Ullswater?

Lieut.-Colonel Sir Thomas Moore

Would any reform of this kind have any effect on the hopes of hon. and right hon. Gentlemen above the Gangway?
