As amended in the Committee, considered.
I beg to move, That the clause be read a Second time.
Madam Speaker:

That is true, and it was known last November, when the right hon. Gentleman agreed to consider the Belgian system. However, voters' preferences can lead to a change in the candidates who are elected. That would not happen in every case, but the system provides for voters to overturn the decision of a political party.
Question put , That the clause be read a Second time:--
The House divided: Ayes 103, Noes 290.
