Business question from Julian Lewis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 December 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Can the Deputy Leader of the House explain to us why the armed forces Bill, which has been long years in the making, has been shoehorned into the parliamentary timetable at a time when no one can possibly prepare properly for Second Reading, whereas the debate on police restructuring, for which everyone is ready, prepared and raring to go, has been withdrawn from the parliamentary timetable? Is it not blindingly obvious that the former should be delayed and the latter reinstated?
