Proceeding contribution from Graham Allen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on Administration Committee.

Administration Committee

I commend my right hon. Friend for congratulating the Modernisation Committee on its very good although sometimes glacially slow work. I ask him not to be unkind to the right hon. Member for Bromley and Chislehurst (Mr. Forth), because by his obstruction, by his keeping up colleagues late at night and by his using the rules as he did, he has caused more modernisation in this Chamber than virtually any other Member. My right hon. Friend should congratulate him on doing that.
