Coalition Government Split in Lords
on Electoral Registration and
Administration Bill
Monday 14/01/2013
On 14/01/2013 the coalition government parties formally split two ways in the House of
Lords on an opposition amendment to the Electoral Registration and Administration Bill:
To insert a clause requiring the Boundary Commissions to submit their next reports not
before October 2018, rather than before October 2013.This would thereby delay the
implementation of the proposed boundary changes.
This was the first such whipped coalition split in the parliamentary session and since the
coalition’s formation.
