Proceeding contribution from Joan Walley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 21 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Estates of Deceased Persons (Forfeiture Rule and Law of Succession) Bill.


Estates of Deceased Persons (Forfeiture Rule and Law of Succession) Bill

I am most grateful to the right hon. Gentleman for his positive remarks about considering the issue of private Members' Bills. Does he agree that one of the problems of our archaic system and how we deal with private Members' Bills is that a great deal of filibustering goes on in this place, rather than action that makes our Parliament fit for purpose?
