Lisbon Treaty — Commons timetable for debate — 28 Jan 2008 at 21:45

Derek Twigg MP, Halton voted with the majority (Aye).

The majority Aye voters approved a Government 'programme motion'[1] restricting the House to set a timetable for debating the European Union (Amendment) Bill, which implements the Lisbon Treaty.

The debate will now take place over 12 allotted days (i.e. days selected for debate of this bill, as opposed to 12 consecutive days). On most days 4 1/2 hours are allowed for a motion that approves the Government's policy towards the Lisbon Treaty in a specific policy area, followed by 1 1/2 hours when the House can debate any selected amendments relating to that area.
