Criminal Law

Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Speaker) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 November 2014. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Criminal Law.

The answer is that a considerable number of Members have applied to speak in this debate. If memory serves, approximately 20, possibly slightly more, wished to speak in the debate as a whole, not in the debate on the previous question—obviously I have had no written applications on that, because it has only just been introduced. On the overall debate today, I had approximately 20 requests to speak. If those Members do not have the opportunity to do so, they will be denied the opportunity today, but they would not, of course, be denied the opportunity subsequently.
