Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 March 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Publication of a Select Committee Report.


Publication of a Select Committee Report

My hon. Friend is making a wonderful statement, and I agree entirely with his comments. Is this not just ““Yes Minister”” reinventing itself, like in that wonderful episode, where it is explained: ““When you get a new Minister, what you do is fill his diary and give him plenty of paperwork so he never makes a decision on anything””?
