Madam Deputy Speaker
The powers that be. That is how it works. The House has the option to reject the motion if it does not like it.
Mr John Baron (Basildon and Billericay) (Con)
Further to that point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker.
Madam Deputy Speaker
I will take the further point of order, but I must say that we do need to move on.
Mr Baron
Very briefly, Madam Deputy Speaker, is there anything that Mr Speaker can do about extending the time that Parliament has to scrutinise this important legislation today? We are raising tens of billions of pounds for a social care reform of which Parliament has had no opportunity to scrutinise the details. In fact, I am not even sure that the details have been supplied. That is the wrong way of going about business in this place and it does not reflect well on us here.
