Evangelical Alliance
As I indicated on Tuesday, and following discussion through the usual channels, I am happy to accommodate the submissions from the Evangelical Alliance and to add their representatives to the list of witnesses. The amendment which the Committee approved on Tuesday does exactly that and extends the session this afternoon from 4 o’clock to half-past 4, to allow the Evangelical Alliance to present evidence to the Committee. I hope that that is acceptable to the Committee.
I understand that it is again a long session of some three and a half hours and I believe that you, Sir Nicholas, may use discretion, should you so wish, to allow a short suspension of the Committee, if it seems appropriate. I hope that the efforts of “the usual channels” and the Evangelical Alliance’s preparedness to present evidence this afternoon is acceptable to hon. Members, and I commend the motion to the Committee.
