Parliamentary Standards Bill

Why is it appropriate to go through this great constitutional rigmarole in advance of the recommendations of Sir Christopher Kelly's committee, which is bound to cover all the same ground? The Prime Minister has said, I think unwisely, that we are going to accept in full all that committee's recommendations, which are bound to cut across some of the proposals in the Bill, which means that we will have to go through the whole thing again.
