Previously called Standing Committees, Public Bill Commitees study proposed legislation (Bills) in detail, debating each clause and reporting any amendments to the Commons for further debate.
There are at least 16 MPs on a Committee, and the proportion of parties reflects the House of Commons, so the government always has a majority.
(Morning)
Dan Daly and Penny Pender gave evidence.
Dennis Davis and James Carpenter gave evidence.
