Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 3:37 pm on 30 April 2001.
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. In answer to a previous question, the right hon. Lady said that it was hard to tell the effect of a provision. If a Minister is saying that it is hard to tell the effect of a clause in a Bill that she has introduced, the public will find it even harder. Mr. Speaker, do you believe that this is an opportunity for the Minister to clarify what she meant?
