Points of Order

Kevin Foster Excerpts

Thursday 21st July 2022 Commons Chamber

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

Thank you. The business to be taken in Westminster Hall is determined by the Chairman of Ways and Means, the Backbench Business Committee or the Petitions Committee, not by Ministers or their officials. While the content of Ministers’ responses to debates in Westminster Hall is not a matter for the Chair, I would obviously expect those responses to address the content of the speeches in those debates. If the hon. Lady feels that the Minister’s responses to the points she made in the debate were unsatisfactory, I am sure that the Table Office will be able to advise on how best to pursue the matter. I do not know if the Minister wants to make any comments—

indicated dissent.

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

Okay, we will leave it at that. Thank you.
