Debate in Parliament

Robert Brewster

3/30/2009

 One of our members has asked her M.P. to help advance the memorial project.
The M.P., Mr. Phil Willis, has been successful in obtaining an Adjournment
debate which will start around 10 p.m. this evening and last for 30 minutes.
This allows Mr. Willis to speak and the Minister, Tessa Jowell, will reply.
The MP has no right of response, but can intervene in the Minister's speech
if he or she is willing to allow it (called 'giving way').  The speech that
Mr. Willis has prepared is excellent.

 

If you would like to watch the debate this evening, you can do so live on
the parliament channel on television, or online here:
