Fixed-term Parliaments Bill

I am following my hon. and learned Friend's arguments with great interest. In the Parliament Acts, the expression about whether the provision is conclusive for all purposes is reinforced by the words,"““and shall not be questioned in any court of law””." It is curious that those words are omitted from this Bill given that would provide an additional amount of safeguard and put the courts even more on notice that Parliament had instructed them not to question any provision in any court of law.
