HC Deb 23 March 2000 vol 346 cc639-40W
Angela Smith

To ask the hon. Member for Roxburgh and Berwickshire, representing the House of Commons Commission, what matters were discussed at the meeting

The flood defence SSAs for all of those authorities which contribute to the South West Regional Flood Defence Committee and/or the Somerset Local Flood Defence Committee, are as follows:

of the House of Commons Commission on 6 March; and how long the meeting lasted. [115925]

Mr. Kirkwood

It is not the practice of the Commission to report on its deliberative sessions which are held in private, but the Commission is considering ways of improving the distribution of information about relevant decisions to Members.

The Commission reports on all matters that come before it in its Annual Report, published during July. The hon. Member may wish to consult the last Annual Report, the Twenty First, for 1998–99 (HC721) for details of the Commission activities during that financial year.
