Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 October 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The hon. Gentleman will know that the House of Lords has already found in the Government's favour on this issue, but that is not to say that we do not want to do everything we can to support those people. I know the hon. Gentleman has led—admirably, although I often disagree with him—many debates on overseas territories in Westminster Hall, and I would have thought this was a suitable subject for debate there.
