Fixed-term Parliaments Bill

Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Fixed-term Parliaments Bill.
Listening to the Minister's opening remarks, I entirely agreed with him that there was no need for a sunset clause, but shortly afterwards he spoke of a review allowing the opportunity for such a clause. If there is no need for it—I agree with him on that—why bother to table the amendment? Moreover, I do not think that it will be possible for the Prime Minister to organise a review in 2020, because by then there will be a House business committee, and it will be for it to make the decision.
