Private Rented Sector

Nigel Evans Excerpts

Wednesday 23rd January 2013 Commons Chamber

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

We now come to the motion relating to the private rented sector. I inform the House that Mr Speaker has selected the amendment in the name of the Prime Minister.

Order. Members can resume their seats. Before I call the Minister to move the amendment, I want to explain the time limits. I shall be listening very carefully to see how long the Minister takes to move his amendment, and then I shall have a better idea of what the time limit will be. However, those who wish to speak should not be thinking about more than a five-minute contribution at the beginning.

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

Order. There will be a five-minute time limit on speeches to begin with, but that may be revisited so that we can get as many Members in as possible.
