Thank you.
I have put the convention issue to rest and it shall rest in peace.
I want to turn to Mr. Milner. I think it's important to note that when we're talking about democratic deficit and reform, I'm sure they didn't study the extension of the franchise to women when they did that. It's simply sometimes the right thing to do and I say that as a passing observation. In this case it's the right thing to do, I believe, along with many other things.
One of the things that impressed me about your work for the Law Commission and some of the other papers you've done is the idea of civic participation. I'd love to talk to you about the idea of proportional representation, but on this particular bill how can we use this bill, not only to pass it in Parliament, but what can we do to really get out there and have more people participate in the democratic system? How do you envision fixed election dates improving that state? And how do we get more people active and involved--young people, people who normally don't participate--with this bill, in and of itself?
