Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 March 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

My hon. Friend makes an important point. Parliamentarians do an important job in scrutinising legislation and holding Ministers to account, and they speak up for, and engage in, activities in their constituencies, but, as she rightly points out, they also play a big role in other, international institutions. There is no current format by which that can be reported back to the House, so I will be happy to discuss with her how we might find an opportunity to do that.
