Proceeding contribution from Keith Simpson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Cluster Munitions (Prohibitions) Bill (HL) 2009-10.
Cluster Munitions (Prohibitions) Bill [Lords]
With respect to the Minister, this happens in so many Committees—it is a good example of new Labour setting dividing lines. There are no dividing lines on the measure. We support the Bill. We have asked legitimate questions that relate not only to the safety of many civilians throughout the world, but to our armed forces. The questions were asked not merely to spin out the time—they are legitimate and put by colleagues, many of whom have much greater experience than the Minister or me.
