Proceeding contribution from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on Legislative Process.

Legislative Process

Does the hon. Gentleman see any merit in the suggestion that the House should return earlier for the Christmas session, so that we do not come back for two weeks in September only to go away again, and so cause disruption to Parliament? Surely the sensible solution is to return in the middle or at the end of September, so that there is no disruption to the House, and so that we can subject the Government to scrutiny from that time onwards?
