Labour — Bootle

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 October 2024

Debate

Scotland’s Economy

Contribution

Order. I remind Members that they should bob if they wish to be called in the debate. We have an hour and a half in total, and the Government and Opposition spokespeople will have 10 minutes each. Regrettably, given that at least 14 people have indicated that they wish to speak, the time limit on Back-Bench speeches will be two and a half minutes. I am afraid that I will be pretty strict about that in order to give everybody the opportunity to speak. Finally, I ask Members to bear in mind that if there are too many interventions, which should be brief, that limit may be reduced.
