Downing Street Says » Review of Voting Systems

Asked if it was still the policy that at some stage after an official review there would be a referendum, the PMS replied that whatever previous commitments had been made on this, remained the commitments; the report published today simply assessed the experiences of different voting systems that had been put in place for various elections (local/mayoral elections and elections in devolved countries and regions) and analysed what the effects of those had been on issues such as voter turn out. The report did not come up with any specific recommendations; it was simply meant to be a contribution to the debate.
