Birmingham Commonwealth Games and Shooting

Baroness Laing of Elderslie Excerpts

Wednesday 21st March 2018 Commons Chamber

[Chris Davies (Brecon and Radnorshire) (Con)]

I congratulate the hon. Gentleman on securing this important debate. Those of us representing Welsh constituencies share his great disappointment that shooting will not be taking place at the 2022 Commonwealth games. Do you agree that perhaps the UK Government could take the lead and organise a similar international competition somewhere else in the country?

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Mrs Eleanor Laing)]

Order. As this is an Adjournment debate with several Members present, I cannot allow the hon. Gentleman to address that remark to me rather than to the hon. Member for Strangford (Jim Shannon).

[Chris Davies]

I apologise, Madam Deputy Speaker.
