House Of Lords Presiding Officer

EDM number 444 in 2003-04, proposed by Michael Spicer on 19/01/2004.

That this House notes the report prepared by the House of Lords' Select Committee on the Speakership of the House of Lords and its recommendation that the senior Lord presiding on the Woolsack should be known as the Lord Speaker; further notes that the Committee recognized the argument that this might lead to confusion with the Speaker of the House of Commons, but dismissed it; respectfully consider that there would be considerable scope for such confusion to occur, particularly in respect of Mr Speaker's role in representing this House at home and overseas; and calls upon the Government to facilitate consultations between both Houses about this important and sensitive issue.

This motion has been signed by a total of 188 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
