Proceeding contribution from Simon Burns (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on Home Affairs.


Home Affairs

Does my right hon. Friend accept that part of the Leader of the House’s argument is that it is important that the decision be taken today because the previous Chairman is now a Cabinet member? Her argument is that that is not right, and he should be removed. If that is the case, why have the Government not brought forward two other motions to remove the other two Ministers who are still members of Select Committees? Surely those Committees will not be able to do their work during the summer, and surely those members should be removed, too.
