Proceeding contribution from Adam Afriyie (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

It seems to me, and I think there is common consensus, that the country is over-governed. Surely reducing the level of over-government means increasing the proportion of representatives in the House of Commons relative to those numbers. I therefore welcome this report, which makes that point absolutely clear.
