Procedure of the House (Proposal 4)

Lord Colwyn Excerpts

Tuesday 8th November 2011 Lords Chamber

[The Chairman of Committees (Lord Brabazon of Tara)]

My Lords, as your Lordships know, I am completely neutral on these proposals and have no views. I therefore put the Question. I beg to move that proposal 4 be agreed to.

[The Deputy Speaker (Lord Colwyn)]

I wonder whether it would help the House if I read out the Motion. This Motion invites the House to insert new guidance in the Companion with a view to promoting briefer interventions from Members and Ministers during Question Time.

Motion agreed.
