Business question from Nicholas Winterton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 January 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The European Union (Amendment) Bill is of huge constitutional importance to the country. Why has the Leader of the House not permitted two days' debate on Second Reading, so that more Back Benchers can be called? On topical debates, when will the Leader of the House allow a meaningful contribution from all parties so that there is more transparency about the choice of subjects for topical debate?
