Business of the House

Peter Bone Excerpts

Monday 4th July 2011 Commons Chamber

[Sir George Young]

I understand that the matter is before the courts.

[Mr Peter Bone (Wellingborough) (Con)]

I assume that the Leader of the House is not going to move item No. 2 on the Order Paper tonight, but has he considered whether it could be moved and tacked on to whatever time we finish our debate on the emergency Bill?

[Sir George Young]

My hon. Friend is quite right that there is now no need to move the motion that protects the Backbench Business Committee debate for 90 minutes. We do not propose to add that debate to the end of business on Thursday; it will have to be dealt with on another occasion.
