Business question from Claire O'Neill (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 May 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

May I urge the Leader of the House to ensure that Back-Bench time is not taken up by any more debates about MPs' pay and expenses? However, I would welcome further clarification from him about the written statement he made today about Members' pay. Will he urge the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority to be mindful of the point that we have voted for a freeze in MPs pay to put us in line with millions of public sector workers across the country? That must be at the centre of any determination of discussions going forward.
