Energy Bill

Baroness Primarolo Excerpts

Wednesday 19th December 2012 Commons Chamber

Second Reading

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dawn Primarolo)]

Before I call the Secretary of State to move Second Reading, may I say to all hon. Members that there is a very long list of Members who have indicated that they wish to speak in this debate? Even with a tight time limit, it will not be possible in the time we have left to call every Member. I regret, therefore, that some Members will be disappointed and will not be able to participate in this afternoon’s debate. May I also inform the House that the Speaker has selected the amendment in the name of the Leader of the Opposition, Mr Edward Miliband?
