Financial Services (Banking Reform) Bill

Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Speaker) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 December 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Financial Services (Banking Reform) Bill.

Order. I should explain to the House that I have exercised some latitude so that the hon. Member for Chichester (Mr Tyrie) could offer a bit of background on the parliamentary investigation. I did that because I thought that it would be genuinely helpful to the House and because there would be no other opportunity for those observations to be made. That said, I would not want it to be thought that that will be the normal rubric on these occasions. The normal rule of thumb, which must continue to apply, is that Members should attend to and focus their remarks exclusively on the amendments and should not engage in what might be called a wider dilation. I hope that that is helpful to the House.
