Proceeding contribution from Ranil Jayawardena (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 July 2015. It occurred during Ministerial statement on English Votes on English Laws.


English Votes on English Laws

My right hon. Friend rightly referenced the fact that some Opposition Members cannot vote on education in their own constituencies, but can vote on education

in his and my constituencies. This goes further than education, as it extends to policing, health and other areas. Does he agree that the Government’s proposals balance the principle of English consent for English measures with the ability of MPs from all parts of the United Kingdom to continue to deliberate and vote together?
