Proceeding contribution from Andrew Miller (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill.


Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill

Perhaps I can help the hon. Gentleman in his difficulties with the right hon. and learned Member for Rushcliffe (Mr. Clarke). I am sure he would accept that all motions before the House tabled by Back Benchers must have equal status. According to his logic, the House would be forced to debate any early-day motion that attracted more than 65 signatures. That would tie down parliamentary time to an impossible degree.
