Nigel Evans Excerpts

Thursday 8th November 2012 Commons Chamber

[Several hon. Members]

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

Order. I would like to give Members some guidance on how the debate will be conducted. I am looking to call the Front Benchers no later than 4.30 pm, and I know that the Minister will be keen to give Mr Metcalfe a couple of minutes at the end to wind up. I will try to do that without imposing any time limits, but I ask Members please to show some time restraint, because there are a few who wish to contribute to this debate.
