    To make the final Back-Bench contribution, which I have no doubt will be just as impactful as the others, I call Douglas McAllister.

    I listened to the Member’s speech very closely. Paragraph 20.13 of “Erskine May” states: “Formerly, the House strictly observed a rule against anticipation”. That was designed to restrict debate on a subject to the type of proceedings deemed to be the most effective. As the word “formerly” suggests, the rule is no longer strictly observed and has not been for many years. The principal provision in the Budget relating to agricultural property relief is not contained in the Finance Bill currently before the House, so the question of anticipation does not arise. In any case, I am firmly of the view that any absolute rule should not prevent Members, whether acting individually or as parties, from holding the Government to account. I hope that that satisfies the Member; it is not a point for him to respond to right now.

    This debate is already oversubscribed. To point out a simple fact, if you were not here for the shadow Minister’s opening speech, you will not be called. That is basic etiquette.

    Order. The hon. Gentleman has already taken two interventions, and the clock will now continue to run for every subsequent intervention that he takes, just in case he was not aware of that and wants to take this intervention from Mr Hinds.

  • 2 Dec 2024 · Deputy Speaker's Statement · Hansard source
    More

    Before we begin the main business, I wish to make a short statement on behalf of Mr Speaker about the House’s sub judice resolution. I understand that the Court of Appeal has recently handed down a judgment on three cases relating to motor finance. Since the lenders involved have sought permission to appeal those cases at the Supreme Court, they remain sub judice. Mr Speaker is exercising his discretion to allow reference to those cases now and in future proceedings where necessary, as they concern a matter of national importance.

  • 2 Dec 2024 · Migration and Border Security · Hansard source

    That is the end of that statement. I will give the Front Benchers a few moments to shuffle over quickly and quietly.

  • 2 Dec 2024 · Migration and Border Security · Hansard source
    More

    To end, we have Jim Shannon.

  • 2 Dec 2024 · Migration and Border Security · Hansard source

  • 2 Dec 2024 · Migration and Border Security · Hansard source

    For the record, I draw the attention of those on the Treasury Bench, and all Members, to paragraph 9.5 of the latest addition of the “Ministerial Code”, which states that a copy of the text of an oral statement should be made available to the Opposition and to the Speaker’s Office at least 45 minutes before the statement is to be made. It is clearly highly regrettable that that did not happen today. I note the Home Secretary’s previous apology made shortly before the sitting was suspended. I call the Home Secretary to make her statement.
