§ Lynne JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions what mechanisms he has put in place(a) to review recommendations under the Jenkins report and (b) to assess whether changes might be made to the electoral system for the House. [8283]
§ Dr. WhiteheadIn our manifesto, which sets out our intentions for this Parliament, we said we would review our experience of the new voting systems for the devolved Administrations, the European Parliament, and the London Assembly along with the recommendations of the Jenkins report to assess whether changes might be made to the electoral system for the House of Commons. That remains our intention. The timing and structure of any review has yet to be decided.
