§ Amendment made: No. 1, in page 60, line 17, leave out 'of, and clerks to' and insert
§ 'and staff of (including clerks to)'.—[Mr. Clifton-Brown.]
Mr. DaveyOn a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. The House may need to be aware that as amendments and new clauses have fallen, neither the Committee nor the House has debated five areas of part 8, chapter 1, which includes important clauses on charging and trading, which will leave many people in local government very disappointed. Have you been approached by any representatives of the Government about making more time available to debate those clauses?
§ Mr. Deputy SpeakerI understand the hon. Gentleman's concerns about the fact that the House has been unable to debate those matters. Unfortunately those matters have already been decided by the House in its programme motion, and there is nothing that the Chair can do about that at this stage.
