  Electoral Integrity
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  <p>This division took place at the end of a Conservative opposition day debate on the electoral system, concentrating on postal voting and electoral registration. The motion which the Conservatives proposed was:</p>
  
  <p class="indent">This House believes that the Government should rule out future use of all-postal voting and that any pilot schemes should be subject to explicit parliamentary ratification; regrets the unwillingness of the Government to adopt in mainland Britain the tried and tested Northern Ireland system of individual voter registration; condemns the Government's constitutional changes which have undermined democratic accountability, such as the introduction of proportional representation; and further believes that urgent steps are needed to restore public confidence and integrity in the electoral system and to increase the accountability of government.</p>
  
  <p>Those voting No rejected the words of this motion.  A new motion proposed by the Government was adopted in the <a href="http://www.publicwhip.org.uk/division.php?date=2005-06-22&number=19"> next division</a>.  </p>
