David Stephen Geoffrey Pollock, 3rd Viscount Hanworth (born 16 February 1946) is a British professor and a peer-elected hereditary Labour member of the House of Lords. Hanworth was educated at Wellington College and has taken a Doctorate of Philosophy (DPhil) at the University of Sussex. He is currently Professor of Econometrics and Computational Statistics at the University of Leicester, where he lectures in Mathematical Statistics, Econometrics and Environmental Sciences.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 House of Lords By-election March 2011 - Candidature Statements )〕 He has been elected a Fellow of the Econometric Society. Grandson of a foremost civil judge, Hanworth succeeded to the viscountcy (and baronetcy) upon his father's death in 1996 and took his seat in the House of Lords until the House of Lords Act in 1999 removed his automatic right to sit in Parliament. He chose not to stand in the election by Labour hereditary peers to select two of their number to remain in Parliament after this Act came into force. Hanworth stood but was unsuccessful in the by-election caused by the death of Lord Milner in 2003. Willing to work in the Lords still, in 2011 he won the cross-house hereditary by-election to become one of fifteen 'deputy speakers', following the death of Lord Strabolgi, who was also Labour. He was therefore appointed/elected on the all hereditary-peer eligibility basis following a death of one of the 90 places which remain based on heredity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Results: Hereditary Peers’ By-election, March 2011 )〕 He and his wife, Elizabeth daughter of Lawrence Vambe MBE, live in London. The title is expected to pass to a nephew as they have two daughters: *Hon. Cecile Pollock *Hon.
