PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
HOUSE OF LORDS ABOLITION (15 January 2003)

That this House expresses its concern that the Joint Committee on House of Lords Reform did not include an option for abolition in its first report; further notes that much of the impetus for House of Lords reform stems from concerns about the effectiveness of the House of Commons; and would support proposals for a unicameral solution coupled with reform of the House of Commons legislative procedures.
