Proceeding contribution from David Burrowes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 July 2013. It occurred during Debate on bill on Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill.


Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill

The right hon. Lady talks about the time the other place gave to scrutinising the Bill, which I respect, but can she point to any non-Government amendments that made it through that scrutiny process? Does she not give some credence to the concerns of the noble Lord Framlingham, who said:

“This House prides itself on being a revising Chamber. On this Bill it has been a bulldozer. We are being used to bulldoze through an ill thought through Bill”?—[Official Report, House of Lords, 15 July 2013; Vol. 747, c. 543.]
