Proceeding contribution from Peter Bottomley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on Sittings of the House.


Sittings of the House

Just to make the situation clear to those who will read this debate, my hon. Friend is suggesting that three spare Fridays in January—before the first one that the Government have proposed—are available, along with two in March. Is it not fair to say that the Government could easily have tabled a motion to suspend the rule, and taken a vote on it and on my hon. Friend's amendment, at any stage since Parliament returned for the new Session?
