		<description>This LCO went into a ballot on the 12th of December. Here is the info that I received.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&#039;The Presiding Officer yesterday announced that he will, on 12 December, hold two ballots to enable Members to submit proposals for legislation. The ballots will be held simultaneously: one for Legislative Competence Orders (LCO), under Standing Order 22.47; and one for Measures, under Standing Order 23.99. It is the Presiding Officer’s intention to continue holding the Ballots at regular intervals, and on this basis he has agreed provisional dates for future Ballots as 20 February; 16 April and 11 June. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I attach a note for Members outlining the ballot procedures for both LCOs and Measures. In particular, I would like to draw Members’ attention to the following paragraph in the note:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“All pre-ballot information tabled will be published in a ‘live list’ by Table Office. Members may only enter one proposal to that list but may revise or replace their proposal at any time between ballots. The proposals contained in the published list will automatically be entered into each ballot, unless Members advise Table Office otherwise.”</description>

		<description>Well done Bethan, this is needed. My limited knowledge of the subject makes me believe there are schemes already committed to this. Indeed, i can remember the MP i used to work for promoting this, and mike german opened a cash machine in my village.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Well done dear. Have a good xmas...&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Marcus Warner</description>
