Speaker's ruling from Speaker in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 March 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on The Economy.


The Economy

Order. To use the lingua franca of the day’s debate, I intend to impose a light touch of regulation and reduce the Back-Bench speaking time to 10 minutes when I call the first hon. Member after 5 o’clock, to try to accommodate more Members.
