The Political and Constitutional Reform Select Committee is a select committee of the House of Commons in the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It was created on 7 June 2010. ==Remit== The committee was created in response to changes to the machinery of government intended to give the Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, responsibility for political and constitutional reform. The functions given to the Deputy Prime Minister are as follows: *Introducing fixed-term Parliaments *Legislating to hold a referendum on the alternative vote system for the House of Commons and to create fewer and more equal sized constituencies, see Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Act 2011 *Supporting people with disabilities in becoming MPs *Introducing a power for people to recall their MPs *Developing proposals for a wholly or mainly elected second chamber *Speeding up implementation of individual voter registration *Considering the "West Lothian question" *Introducing a statutory register of lobbyists *Reforming party funding *Supporting all postal primaries In addition, the Deputy Prime Minister has ministerial responsibility for the Boundary Commissions, the Electoral Commission, and the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.〔(House of Commons Debates 2 June 2010 vol 510 cc22–3ws )〕 All of these are therefore within the remit of the committee. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Political and Constitutional Reform Select Committee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
