Use of the Chamber (Youth Parliament)

I beg to move,"That this House welcomes the work of the United Kingdom Youth Parliament in providing young people with an opportunity to engage with the political process and bring about social change; notes that many hon. Members from all parts of the House are actively involved in the work of the UK Youth Parliament; and accordingly resolves that the UK Youth Parliament should be allowed for this year alone to hold its 2009 annual meeting in the Chamber of this House." I suppose I should start by saying, "Seconds out, round two," as this feels like the second part of a debate that did not really begin yesterday. I will also just say this to the hon. Member for Macclesfield (Sir Nicholas Winterton), who is the longest-standing member of the Modernisation Committee, and who raised a point of order just now: he called for a matter to be referred to the Modernisation Committee, but last week he called for the Modernisation Committee to be abolished, so consistency is clearly not one of his major features for today.
