Mr Speaker
Order. The Leader of the House’s brevity now needs to be matched by that of Back Benchers.
Mr David Nuttall (Bury North) (Con)
Will the Leader of the House consider instituting an annual debate on the military covenant, which, may I suggest, could be held as near as possible to Remembrance day each year?
Sir George Young
I am grateful to my hon. Friend. He will have seen the coalition’s programme for government document, which has a long paragraph about the military covenant. We are considering how best to rebuild and rewrite the covenant, and my hon. Friend has made an interesting suggestion.
