HC Deb 20 April 1998 vol 310 c395W
Miss McIntosh

To ask the President of the Council what estimate she has made of the cost of electronic voting in the House. [38471]

Mrs. Ann Taylor

The cost of any possible electronic voting system would depend on what form of electronic voting, if any, was chosen. The Modernisation Committee will shortly be writing to all Members inviting their views on a range of options, which include retaining the current voting system. Cost will be one of the factors taken into account when reviewing these options.
