Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Lab Co-op)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 July 2024

Debate

Arrangement of Business

Contribution

My Lords, this is a convenient point to pause the debate on the gracious Speech, which will not be resumed before 7 pm, to allow the Leader of the House to repeat a Statement from the Prime Minister. That will allow the Statement to take up to its full 40 minutes, as allocated. However, if it finishes a few minutes early, we can return to the gracious Speech without having to adjourn the House during pleasure.
