Business question from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 July 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
My right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr. Cameron) has shown great leadership in strengthening the role of Back Benchers by allowing Conservative Back Benchers in Committee to vote against the Whip. Yesterday, more than 20 Labour Members voted against the Whip in Committee of the whole House and defeated the Government. May we have a statement on whether the Government are following my right hon. Friend's lead?
