Business of the House

I thank my right hon. Friend for his congratulations on my award on Tuesday of the Fenner Brockway medal. [Interruption] What did I get it for? For being a good friend of India. [ Interruption. ] Whoever said ““quite right,”” I will pass his approbation on to the organisers of the event. On the Judicial Appointments Commission, I understand the concerns because there have also been other concerns about, for example, delays in the appointment of fee-paid immigration judges. I will communicate my right hon. Friend’s concern to the Lord Chancellor and if there is an opportunity for a debate, I will ensure that one happens.
