I think there is a rough consensus that we ought to have more time in which to debate the Bill. As for the point raised by the right hon. Member for Wokingham (Mr. Redwood), I should have thought it was blindingly obvious that we sought the extra seven days because that would take us to the recess.
The right hon. Gentleman made an uncharacteristically cheap point about the length of the recess. I may be wrong about this, but I do not recall his being particularly vocal when I offered the House an opportunity to vote for September sittings.
