Fixed Term Parliaments Bill — Clause 2 — Early parliamentary general elections — 1 Dec 2010 at 15:30

The majority of MPs voted not to prevent a certificate from the Speaker of the House of Commons relating to the calling of a general election being questioned in court.

MPs were considering the Fixed Term Parliaments Bill[1]. The amendment rejected in this vote was[2]:

  • Amendment 6, page 2, line 15, leave out subsection (3) and insert-
  • '(3) Any certificate of the Speaker of the House of Commons given under this section shall be conclusive for all purposes and shall not be presented to or questioned in any court of law whatsoever.'.

This amendment would have taken effect on subsection (3) of clause two of the Bill as it stood[3] which stated:

  • (3) A certificate under this section is conclusive for all purposes.
