DISRUPTION OF GOVERNMENT BUSINESS

Early day motion 300, tabled 20 January 2000 by Jane Griffiths (Labour). Signed by 43 members.

That this House is disappointed at the appalling behaviour of a small number of honourable Members of Her Majesty's Opposition who manipulated the procedures of this House to prevent the Fur Farming (Prohibition) Bill from being taken, in defiance of overwhelming public opinion that wishes to see an end to this barbaric practice; and calls upon the Government to review the procedures of this House to allow genuine scrutiny and debate whilst ending opportunities for time wasting.

Signatures by party: Labour 33, Labour/Co-operative 5, Liberal Democrat 4, DUP 1.
