Social Security Fraud Bill
10:30 am
Mr David Wilshire (Spelthorne, Conservative)
The Minister has said that this is his last Standing Committee. I note his enthusiasm in saying that; perhaps he knows more than the rest of us. If the House sits until October, someone may pick up some more work for him to do, so we may meet again before he retires.
It is my first Committee since the new arrangements came into being, and I have not seen a motion of this type before. I am mystified why five to 10 has been chosen as the time for the Committee to sit, as distinct from 10.30. I am sure that there is a sensible explanation for that and I should like to know what it is.
