Proceeding contribution from Mark Fisher (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 December 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on House of Commons Reform.
House of Commons Reform
I hope that I have made it clear. The time that is properly the Government's is the time that they need to get through the programme on which they were elected and have a mandate for from the public. They have to introduce legislation and have it scrutinised and enacted. All other time is the House's business. If I have a criticism of this report it is that the distinction to which my hon. Friend refers is not made clear.
