Business question from Helen Goodman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 January 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
This morning, the Secretary of State for Justice announced the first prison closure programme since the second world war. He briefed the press before he made his written ministerial statement and that briefing took place only 24 hours after Justice oral questions. That follows the Ministry of Justice's failure to make a statement on the prison riots. These are important matters. Will the Leader of the House encourage his colleagues in that Department not to be quite so evasive?
