Business question from Julian Lewis (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
I am sure that, like every other assiduous constituency MP, the Leader of the House has during the course of her parliamentary career frequently given absolute assurances to constituents who impart sensitive personal information to her that what they say will be covered as if it were the secrets of the confessional. In the light of recent developments, what advice can she give to Members as to what we should say to constituents who urge us to treat what they are about to impart to us with total confidentiality?
