I accept the ruling of the Chair and the Bills Office on the matter, but I believe a comparison can be made between advertising online and advertising on a lamp post. They are not that dissimilar. There is cross-party agreement on this. The Minister of State would be one of the people principally in favour of limiting the number of election posters and devolving powers to local authorities to that end. If the Minister of State were to consider the matter, he would have great support from me and, I imagine, others on the committee.
