Oral Answers to Questions

Andrew Miller Excerpts

Tuesday 21st January 2014 Commons Chamber

[Mr Hague]

Yes, I agree with all of that. I issued a statement on this yesterday. We believe it was a serious mistake for the Ukrainian Administration to enact legislation placing greater restrictions on fundamental freedoms, and we will continue to make that argument.

[Andrew Miller (Ellesmere Port and Neston) (Lab)]

May I draw the Foreign Secretary’s attention to my point of order yesterday about the Government’s failure to brief me about the destruction of chemical weapons in my constituency? Will he undertake, first, to answer, as a matter of urgency, my five named day questions, and secondly to ensure the high-level ministerial briefing for me that was promised to the company—not to me—and thirdly will he put on the record his apology to my constituents for his failure?

[Mr Speaker]

I hope that the hon. Gentleman’s appetite can be satisfied, at any rate for today. We shall see.
