Business question from Jim Sheridan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 February 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Can we have a statement from my hon. Friend on the process for the root and branch review of Members' expenses, which is under way? As I understand it, the House gave authority to the Members Estimate Committee to carry out that review, but if press and media reports are to be believed, everyone and their granny wants a piece of the action. Can we have clarity on the issue, if for no other reason than that the authority of the House be undermined no longer?
