Proceeding contribution from Mark Durkan (Social Democratic & Labour Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Fixed-term Parliaments Bill.


Fixed-term Parliaments Bill

Does my hon. Friend agree that this is not a fixed-term Parliaments Bill that will entrench anything in the system, but rather a ““fix for this Parliament”” Bill that merely represents the expedient and the ephemeral embracing each other to cope with the unexpected?
