Parliamentary Search

Business question from Viscount Hailsham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 December 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.

Business of the House

Yesterday, Mr. Speaker, you said to the House in your statement that to the Speaker's Committee should be referred the matter of the seizure by the police of the material belonging to my hon. Friend the Member for Ashford (Damian Green) and that the report should be done as soon as possible. Does the Leader of the House accept that the motion that she has placed before the House complies with the Speaker's statement in neither respect? It does not deal with the seizure of the material and it specifically prevents an early report.
