Deputy Speakers

Volume 752: debated on Wednesday 17 July 2024

Before I call the Leader of the House, I can now formally announce the arrangements for the election of the Deputy Speakers. The ballot will be held on Tuesday 23 July between 10 am and 1.30 pm in Committee Room 8. Nominations must be submitted to the Table Office between 10 am and 5 pm on Monday 22 July. Nomination forms and an updated briefing note with information about the election are available in the Vote Office. I call the Leader of the House to move the motion on temporary Deputy Speakers.
