Debate between Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon and Lord Kilclooney

Tuesday 8th October 2013 Lords Chamber

[Lord Kilclooney (CB)]

My Lords, great stress has been laid on the importance—

[Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon (Con)]

My Lords, I regret that we must conclude because we have had 20 minutes on the Statement.

[Lord Kilclooney]

I thought that we had some extra time because the next business is not yet due to begin.

[Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon]

There is a set time of 20 minutes for questions following a Statement. However, the noble Lord is right to say that the next business will not start until 7.07 pm, and so I beg to move the House do now adjourn during pleasure.
