Speaker's ruling from Speaker in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on Africa.


Africa

Order. Mr. Speaker had imposed a time limit of 12 minutes on Back-Bench contributions. Since that time three hon. Members have withdrawn their requests to make a contribution to the debate, so I am in the rather happy position of being able to say that the time limit on Back-Bench speeches will be 14 minutes.
