Proceeding contribution from Christopher Chope (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 28 October 2009. It occurred during Debate on Speaker's Committee for the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.

Speaker's Committee for the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority

My right hon. Friend repeated what the Deputy Leader of the House said about the limited role of the Committee, but does he not see that it would also have a role under section 5(4)(d) of the Parliamentary Standards Act 2009, which provides that""In preparing or revising the scheme"—" for MPs' allowances—""the IPSA must consult . . . any committee of the House of Commons nominated by the Speaker"." Is that not the same Committee that we are discussing this evening?
