Defence (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2009: Committee and Remaining Stages
2:00 pm
David Norris (Independent)
The business of this House is run in a most chaotic and disordered fashion. We have again revised the Order of Business and a Bill is going through all Stages without notice. There was supposed to be a gap. It is deplorable the way Members on all sides are being treated. It is wrong and I wish to register my objection. I will not call a vote at this point because that would be disruptive. I am glad flexibility was given to the Minister to enable him to complete his reply on Second Stage. We have much work to do in this House and it is not helpful when business is so chaotically ordered.
