Business of the House

Lord Hanson of Flint Excerpts

Thursday 24th October 2019 Commons Chamber

[Mr Speaker]

This is absolutely fascinating, but we are not going to embark upon a philosophical discussion on the matter of sovereignty. This treats of the business of the House for Monday, nothing more, nothing less; brevity is required.

[David Hanson (Delyn) (Lab)]

I just want to be clear: is the Leader of the House’s motion on Monday under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011?

[Mr Rees-Mogg]

Yes.
