Armed Conflict (Parliamentary Approval)

Does the Leader of the House, who chairs the Modernisation Committee on which I sit, accept that we are likely to move towards the very structure that he has proposed to the House, and that there will be debates in the House on substantive or meaningful motions to enable the House to express a view one way or the other? That is likely to be a recommendation of the Modernisation Committee’s current inquiries and is—I point out to colleagues on both sides of the House—a result of representations made to us from both sides of the House.
