Business of the House

Can the Leader of the House help to clarify one point that has troubled me overnight. [Interruption.] No, it is a serious point. A certificate was signed by the Serjeant at Arms waiving the need for a warrant. Surely the only person who could have done that is the hon. Member for Ashford (Damian Green). If somebody wanted to search the flat that I rent, my managing agent could not authorise that. Only I could, surely. Can we have some clarification of whether the only the person who can say, ““Yes, you can come into my flat or my office,”” and authorise that is that person himself or herself? Is that not the case?
