Succession To The Crown

EDM number 629 in 2004-05, proposed by Tony Wright on 01/02/2005.

That this House notes the introduction of the Succession to the Crown Bill, introduced in the House of Lords by Lord Dubs and in the House of Commons by the Right honourable Member for Dewsbury; applauds the Fabian Society's Monarchy Commission on which it is based; believes that the reforms proposed in the Bill to end gender discrimination in the line of succession and the bar on the heir to the throne marrying a Roman Catholic are long overdue; and calls upon the Government to give its support to this measure.

This motion has been signed by a total of 23 MPs.
