Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 20 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Daylight Saving Bill.


Daylight Saving Bill

I am sorry that my hon. Friend has not had an opportunity to speak to tourism operators in his constituency. He will know that his constituency is next door to mine, and I have had a chance to visit the tourism operators in his constituency. I apologise for not letting him know in advance, but they were and are very much in favour of this Bill. I add that we are supposed to be debating the report and that people's attitude to my hon. Friend's idea of not moving the clocks in winter but only in summer could be discovered when people react to the Government's request for information when the report is put together. My hon. Friend's amendment and request are, in effect, already in the Bill as it stands.
