Proceeding contribution from Albert Owen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 3 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Daylight Saving Bill.
Daylight Saving Bill
I am reluctant to go with the Portuguese example, but it happened because Portugal had extra benefits already, so that is not a strong argument. I do not think we should be discussing Portugal today, because the only thing that it has in common with England is that both lost the FIFA bid. The hon. Gentleman said that he was happy to compromise and to move forward. All that this Bill is asking is that there is an analysis of cost benefits and a trial period. Surely, in the spirit of compromise that he mentions, he should support this measure.
