Baroness Vere of Norbiton (Con)
My Lords, in moving this Motion, may I suggest that proceedings on Report should begin again not earlier than 7.10 pm?
Baroness Smith of Basildon
I am slightly puzzled as to why the House would seek to rise at 6.36 pm for a break. The normal time for a dinner break would be around 7.30 pm. I appreciate that we have made swifter progress than anticipated, but it is inappropriate for the House to adjourn at this point. We should continue with the business before us. I am grateful to the usual channels for giving us a dinner break today; that is helpful. However, the normal time of after 7.30 pm would be more appropriate.
