Mr. Best
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will reconsider whether to propose a Speaker's Conference on possible changes to the electoral system; and what are his proposals for discussing reform of the electoral system.

As soon as I have completed my general review of electoral law and procedures I shall consider what changes appear to be necessary and how best to proceed.
