Communications and Digital Committee

Membership Motion

Moved by

That, as proposed by the Committee of Selection, Lord Hall of Birkenhead, Baroness Harding of Winscombe and Lord Young of Norwood Green be appointed members of the Select Committee, in place of Viscount Colville of Culross, Lord Gilbert of Panteg, Lord Stevenson of Balmacara; and that Baroness Stowell of Beeston be appointed chair of the Select Committee.

My Lords, this Motion and the other Motion standing in my name before your Lordships give effect to the rotation rule which is applied each January following a meeting of the Committee of Selection. The rotation rule operates to secure a regular turnover of Select Committee memberships. Members rotating off Select Committees, who include several Select Committee chairs, have served their full term under the rotation rule. I take this opportunity to thank them for their contribution and service to these committees. I beg to move.

Motion agreed.
