International Development (Official Development Assistance Target) Bill (Money)

Debate between Desmond Swayne and Jacob Rees-Mogg

Monday 3rd November 2014 Commons Chamber

[Mr Swayne]

It is vital that these matters are investigated and answers are given and that proper schemes are in place and enforced to ensure that the money is spent correctly. The purpose of this money resolution, however, is to give effect to the will of the House, clearly expressed in September, that this Committee proceed.

[Jacob Rees-Mogg (North East Somerset) (Con)]

Why, therefore, are the Government not bringing forward a money resolution for the European Union (Referendum) Bill—or, for that matter, the Bill of my hon. Friend the Member for St Ives (Andrew George), because he will be on his feet in a moment if I do not include him?

[Mr Swayne]

I would welcome being at this Dispatch Box to move a money resolution for the European Union (Referendum) Bill.
