Business question from Bernard Jenkin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 February 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Do the Leader of the House and the Government agree that the reporting of Iran to the United Nations Security Council is a very serious matter, reflecting a grave international crisis that is preoccupying every major power on this earth? I realise that we are to have a defence debate this afternoon, but a 12-minute limit on speeches has been imposed, and the debate is meant to be about procurement, not just about Iran. Would it not be sensible for the Government to hold a full day’s debate on Iran, so that the House can be fully informed about where this development is leading our own Government?
