Business of the House

Volume 716: debated on Thursday 28 January 2010

Timing of Debates

Moved By

That the debate on the Motion in the name of Lord McNally set down for today shall be limited to two and a quarter hours and that in the name of Lord Tyler to three hours.

My Lords, it has come to light that the time limits shown on the speakers list for the second debate today, in the name of the noble Lord, Lord Tyler, add up to four minutes more than the two and three-quarter hours proposed for the debate. Rather than reducing the Back-Bench time limit from six minutes to five, it may be for the convenience of the House if the time limit for the second debate is three hours.

Motion agreed.
