Speeches by Nokes.

“I call Lee Pitcher, who will speak for around 15 minutes.”

“I call the shadow Minister.”

“I call the Minister.”

“I commend the hon. Gentleman for his timekeeping and the speed with which he included all that. That brings us to the Front Benchers, remembering that we would like to leave some time for the Member who introduced the debate to wind up. I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“Order. With an immediate three-minute limit, I call Andrew Cooper.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“I call the shadow Secretary of State.”

“The hon. Gentleman has repeatedly used the words “you” and “yours” throughout this afternoon’s proceedings. Please can he do better?”

“I thank the Teller for that point of order and for correcting the record. I hereby direct the Clerks to correct the numbers and confirm that the Ayes were 69 and the Noes were 300. Third Reading”

“Order. This debate has to be fair on both sides. I will not have Members referring to the Prime Minister by name.”

“Order. We do not refer to Members by name, but by constituency.”

“Order. Before we move on to the next speaker, I remind right hon. and hon. Members that it is not in order to impute false or unavowed motives to any other individual hon. Members in this place.”

“Order. I wasn’t anywhere, and I have forgotten nothing. Will Members please be careful about the language they use in the Chamber?”

“I call Paul Holmes.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“Order. Mr Wishart, we are debating the amendments, not your vision for the future of the House of Lords. Perhaps you should stick to the amendments.”

“Just to be entirely clear, it was the property rights element of the hon. Member’s contribution that I thought was beyond scope. I think all Members—the House will be conscious that I have not been in the Chair very long—might like to stick to the scope of the amendments and what we are actually debating this afternoon…”

“I reassure the hon. Gentleman that I have plenty of respect for it.”

“Order. The interventions are very long. The Minister has now taken longer than the shadow Minister did in opening the debate. I am sure he will bring his remarks to a conclusion very soon.”

“There is now a five-minute time limit.”
