Proceeding contribution from Lord Cormack (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Friday, 1 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Remembrance Sunday (Closure of Shops) Bill [HL].
Remembrance Sunday (Closure of Shops) Bill [HL]
I am grateful to my noble friend, for whom I have great admiration, for giving way. Will she give the House two assurances? Will she recognise that what she said about pausing during shopping and so on has, happily, become a feature of 11 November, generally on a weekday? That is good. However, here we are talking about national recognition of Remembrance Sunday. Will she at least have further conversations with her ministerial colleagues about what has been said today and how appropriate many of us feel it would be to have that national act of recognition enshrined by this Parliament?
