Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 March 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The House had an opportunity to consider and make decisions on the substantive motions that I had tabled in response to the Wright Committee's proposals. I tabled them long in advance of the debate, so that if hon. Members felt that the motions did not cover certain things in the Wright Committee's report, they were able to amend the motions to add certain issues. We then came to the House to debate not only the motions, but the amendments to them. Now, the House has resolved them and it is a question of putting them into Standing Orders.
