Business question from Chris Mullin (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 July 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
I welcome the announcement that we will be able to table some written questions during the recess and that some statements will be made in September, but I put it to the Leader of the House that the ability to table written questions is no substitute for the House actually sitting. Does he share my hope that this will be the last of 75 to 80-day recesses, which bring us into such discredit with our constituents? Can we revert to the system that, after all, the House agreed to previously?
