Business question from Angela Watkinson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 November 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Was the Leader of the House one of the lucky Members who received a copy of the Daily Sport in their post this morning? My copy is dated 10 November and I understand that it is typical. It contains a large number of advertisements for hard-core pornography and sexual paraphernalia. May we have an urgent debate on the obscenity laws and the press regulatory code that allows such material to be sold on the bottom shelf alongside serious newspapers, where children can easily access it?
