Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 July 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

It is our intention for there to be pre-legislative scrutiny where appropriate, but the hon. Lady will understand that in the first term of a new Parliament with a new Government, it is not possible for all the legislative proposals to be put into pre-legislative scrutiny. There will be draft Bills on House of Lords reform, which is a constitutional measure, and on privileges, but if we want to make progress and improve the constitution of this country, there cannot be draft Bills on everything.
