Part of Preventing and Combating Violence Against Women and Domestic Violence (Ratification of Convention) Bill – in the House of Commons at 10:00 am on 24 February 2017.
I am grateful to my hon. Friend for giving way with regard to his new clause 10, but I wonder whether he has thought through the constitutional implications of allowing a vote in this House to have any formal standing when it is neither a statutory instrument nor primary legislation. Would that not risk bringing the courts into the proceedings in Parliament?
