Proceeding contribution from Bernard Jenkin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Parliamentary Standards Bill.

Parliamentary Standards Bill

I should like to share an irony with my hon. Friend. Whereas Back-Bench Members of Parliament with outside interests are certainly not working against the interests of the House of Commons, Ministers with such interests are certainly doing so a lot of the time, because they are denying us information and legislating to try to keep us in our box.
