Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Daylight Saving Bill (Money).
Daylight Saving Bill (Money)
That is absolutely right, and my hon. Friend makes an extremely perceptive intervention. In fact, the Government have used a whole year of this two-year Session to delay the Bill, thereby denying the House the scrutiny it needs to improve legislation. I cannot understand why the Government are so frightened of scrutiny, because the better that Back Benchers do their job, the better the legislation, and the better the reputation of the Government of the day.
