Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 January 2026

Debate

Contribution

I am listening very carefully. I am asking for a point of clarification from my noble friend, whom I have been listening to very carefully; obviously, we listen to his advice and guidance. My noble friend has said twice now that we should seek to make more progress. We have had other Members in this conversation reflect on the fact that we are only at Clause 1. Behind that are the 295 amendments that we have considered over the past seven Fridays, which equates to around seven and half minutes per amendment. I seek my noble friend’s guidance: how many minutes should we seek to cover for each amendment, on the basis that he would like us to make more progress?
