Clause 9
Pensions Bill
1:15 pm
Nicholas Winterton (Macclesfield, Conservative)
Before we move on, may bring some reassurance and relief to the Government Whip? I have inquired about the size of quorums. Although seven is appropriate for a full-sized Public Bill Committee, the quorum can also be a third of the members of a Committee. I have done my arithmetic again and, for this Committee, I must be able to see six Members. I think that I have been able to afford some consolation and relief to the Government Whip.
