answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/05/2018 answer text <p>In order to be eligible to stand in a by-election, a hereditary peer must petition the House of Lords to be included in the Register maintained by the Clerk of the Parliaments under Standing Order 10(5). The petition is referred to the Lord Chancellor who reports to the House on whether the peer has proved his or her claim to the title and established his or her right to be included in the Register. If the Lord Chancellor is satisfied that the peer has established his or her right, then the peer is added to the Register; but if the Lord Chancellor is not satisfied, then the matter is referred to the Committee for Privileges and Conduct which considers the matter and reports to the House.</p> answering member printed Lord McFall of Alcluith question first answered 22/05/2018 13:45:46 answering member 4148 label Biography information for Lord McFall of Alcluith
