Written Question
Carry Over Motions
Tuesday 8th October 2019

Asked by: Sandy Martin (Labour - Ipswich)

Question to the Leader of the House:

To ask the Leader of the House, which of the 48 remaining orders and notices listed on the Order Paper for Monday 30 September 2019 will be carried over into a subsequent session of Parliament following any prorogation of the current session.

Answered by Jacob Rees-Mogg

I refer the Hon member to paragraph 8.6 of Erskine May, which sets out the effect of prorogation on business. Erskine May is now available online and paragraph 8.6 can be viewed at https://erskinemay.parliament.uk/section/6499/effect-of-prorogation/. Any primary legislation that has been subject to a carry-over motion agreed by the House will be carried over into the second session.
