House of Lords Appointments Commission
Revision as of 11:05, 1 February 2007 by Fraser Stewart (talk | contribs)
In May 2000 a change was made to the way in which non–party–political members of the House of Lords are appointed. The [House of Lords Appointments Commission] was given the key role of recommending to [Her Majesty The Queen] the names of individuals we think should be appointed on merit.
The public are asked to self–nominate or to nominate others they think should be appointed to the [House of Lords] and the Commission assesses all the nominations against the published criteria. [1]
