Business question from Eric Martlew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 July 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

My right hon. and learned Friend will remember that at the last business questions I asked a question, and I shall ask it again because we need clarity. Will the Leader of the House arrange a debate on the issue of Secretaries of State in the other place not being able to make statements to this House and not being answerable to this House? There is great concern among Members in this place that those Secretaries of State are not answerable to the House of Commons.
