Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 December 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The intention of the amendment was clear. It means that the Chairs should not be paid for their work as the Chair. It does not refer to their being paid in respect of their work as Members. I do not think that the hon. Gentleman is right to say that it will not be possible for Members to chair those Committees because they would then lose their parliamentary salaries as Members; they will not.
