Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Barbara Follett (Labour). It was answered on Monday, 27 November 2006 on behalf of the Leader of the House of Commons.


Sitting Hours

Question
Given that the vote to reverse one of the Cook reforms and revert to late sittings on a Tuesday night was made by previous Members of a previous Parliament, would my right hon. Friend please consider giving current Members a vote on the issue?
Answer

My hon. Friend was a member of the Modernisation Committee, which reported before the last election. Its report was voted on at that time and since then, as I have just said, my right hon. Friend the Leader of the House has received no representations on the matter, but will consider any that are made.
