Health and Social Care Bill

Dan Poulter Excerpts

Tuesday 20th March 2012 Commons Chamber

[Mr Speaker]

Order. The Secretary of State has indicated that he wishes to speak later in the debate—[Interruption.] Order. That is his absolute prerogative. In view of the level of interest in the debate, it will be helpful for the House to know at this point that a five-minute limit on Back-Bench speeches is to be imposed immediately. I call Dr Daniel Poulter.

[Dr Daniel Poulter (Central Suffolk and North Ipswich) (Con)]

indicated dissent.

[Mr Speaker]

He was in, on the list and at the top. If he does not wish to speak, so be it.
