Proceeding contribution from Ian Lucas (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 June 2010. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Constitution and Home Affairs.


Constitution and Home Affairs

Was my right hon. Friend concerned to read on the BBC News website this evening that officials in the Deputy Prime Minister's Department have described his categorical assurance to me today that the Government do support a yes vote in the referendum as a ““slip of the tongue””? Does my right hon. Friend agree that that is a great discourtesy to the House, and has he had any indication from the Deputy Prime Minister that he wishes to correct the record or perhaps find out what Government policy is before he makes pronouncements?
