I beg to move, That the House sit in private.
Question put forthwith (Standing Order No. 163), and negatived.
Mr Peter Bone (Wellingborough) (Con)
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. We see today in the newspapers that the Government are announcing new measures on public sector pensions. It is in the media and we have seen the Chief Secretary to the Treasury being interviewed about it, but unfortunately there has been no notification on the Annunciator or the Order Paper that an oral statement will be made at 11 o’clock. Is that an error, and in fact a statement will be made?
Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Lindsay Hoyle)
I have had no notice of any statements.
