Housing Benefit (Abolition of Social Sector Size Criteria)

Debate between Baroness Primarolo and Nick de Bois

Wednesday 17th December 2014 Commons Chamber

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dame Dawn Primarolo)]

Have you got something to say, Mr de Bois? [Interruption.] No, you have not.

[Nick de Bois (Enfield North) (Con)]

I will have plenty to say later.

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

In that case, you should stand up and indicate at the normal time, rather than shouting from a sedentary position.

Business Rates

Debate between Baroness Primarolo and Nick de Bois

Wednesday 4th December 2013 Commons Chamber

[Nick de Bois]

On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. In the excitement of being called to speak so early, I forgot to notify the House that my wife runs a business, which obviously pays business rates, that was formerly my company. I want to put that on the record and I am grateful to you for allowing me to do so.

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dawn Primarolo)]

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman, as I am sure the House is too. Transparency is always a good idea in the House and that will be shown in the record, so I thank him for his point of order.
