Business without Debate

Joan Walley Excerpts

Friday 12th November 2010 Commons Chamber

[Hon. Members]

Object

Bill to be read a Second time on Friday 19 November.

[Joan Walley (Stoke-on-Trent North) (Lab)]

On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. The number of the objections that there have been to valid private Members’ Bills once again brings into debate the business of the House, the way it is run and its fitness for purpose. The matter urgently needs to be discussed with the Leader of the House.

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

I have nothing to add to that point of order, other than what I said earlier.
