Business question from Ian Liddell-Grainger (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 March 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Given that the Wright Committee business is still going through the House, will the Leader of the House give time to discuss the politicisation of Select Committees? I am a member of the Public Administration Committee. We feel that we cannot attend because it has become a mouthpiece for the Government and that devalues the whole basis of Select Committees. Our papers are political; our discussions are now political. Will she please give time for this place to discuss the future of the Select Committee system?
