R.The Government proposed a 20% elected chamber in its White Paper on the second phase of Lords reform.

S.Lord Irvine of Lairg acknowledged that although the Government still wanted to see a part-elected, part-appointed chamber, the majority of people thought this was "nonsense".

The second sentence should throw light on the nature of the dispute. When we read sentence S, we understand the disput is reagrding a difference of opinion between what the Government and what the people want. Lord Irvine of Lairg, a representative of the Government said that where on the one hand the Government wanted a part-elected chamber, the majority of people think that it's uselss.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1.
