Proceeding contribution from Christopher Chope (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 16 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Fixed Term Parliaments Bill.


Fixed Term Parliaments Bill

I do not know whether the Minister has had the benefit of reading the proceedings of the Joint Committee on the Draft Constitutional Renewal Bill, but if she has, she will know that almost all the evidence that we have received complains of a big gap between the Government's rhetoric and the reality, particularly in relation to the draft Bill.
