Business question from Viscount Hailsham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 October 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

May I ask the Leader of the House for a debate entitled "The Recording of Pecuniary Interests by Members Voting"? She will have read Mr. Speaker’s statement and will know that I, for example, have a pecuniary interest in Equitable Life. There is no way in which Members who are voting can declare that pecuniary interest. It is very unsatisfactory and the public will not understand it. May we look again at how we can record the fact that we have a pecuniary interest in matters on which we have to vote?
