Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on Home Affairs.

Home Affairs

I shall have to get back to the right hon. Gentleman on that, but the issue arises from the timing. We are approaching the summer recess, and as Leader of the House I know that it is important that we have fully functioning Select Committees and that the House should have an opportunity to choose from among its Members those to be appointed to the Select Committee. I also know that the Standing Orders of the House are important, which is why the House has an opportunity to decide on the matter today.
