This bill would stop people from being nominated for a peerage if they have donated £50,000 or more to a political party in the previous five years. It creates a rolling five-year window so large donations within that period would disqualify a nomination for a peerage in the future. If enacted, it would add a new rule to the process of appointing peers in the Lords, applicable to future nominations.
