Points of Order

Debate between Andrew Rosindell and Lindsay Hoyle

Tuesday 27th July 2010 Commons Chamber

[Mr Deputy Speaker]

As someone who used to put down many EDMs, I have great sympathy with the hon. Gentleman’s point, and I thank him for his clarification. I am sure that the House appreciates it.

[Andrew Rosindell (Romford) (Con)]

On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. You might recall that 20 years ago this week, the then hon. Member for Eastbourne, the late Ian Gow, was murdered by the Provisional IRA. He was a magnificent Member and somebody who, I believe, should be recognised permanently in the same way that Airey Neave is recognised. Mr Deputy Speaker, will you take that point back to Mr Speaker to see whether a permanent memorial can be granted in the memory of Ian Gow, the former Member for Eastbourne, who was murdered on 30 July 1990?

[Mr Deputy Speaker]

I will raise that point with Mr Speaker. It is on the record, so he will be able to read it as well.
