HL Deb 23 February 1999 vol 597 c955
Lord Carter

My Lords, at a convenient moment after 3.30 p.m., my noble friend the Leader of the House will, with the leave of the House, repeat a Statement that is being made in another place entitled EMU Outline National Changeover Plan. It is not likely that this Statement will be taken before 4.30 p.m.

It may also be for the convenience of the House if I repeat the suggestion, agreed through the usual channels, that I made yesterday. If the Back-Bench speakers in the resumed debate on the House of Lords reform White Paper take no more than eight minutes, the House will be able to rise at a reasonable hour this evening.
