Proceeding contribution from Julian Lewis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 May 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Dissolution of Parliament.


Dissolution of Parliament

I thank the hon. Gentleman for giving way so generously. I was reassured by what he said earlier about the lack of a guillotine on the legislation. Would he like to take this opportunity to say whether that will be the Government's new general policy on guillotines or whether it is specific only to this legislation? I remember, time after time, quite rightly being sent into the No Lobby to vote against guillotine motion after guillotine motion. I trust that we will be carrying into government the opposition to guillotines that we indicated when in opposition.
