PRIVATE MEMBERS' LEGISLATION

EDM number 649 in 1998-99, proposed by Nick Palmer on 14/05/1999.

That this House, bearing in mind the ability of very small groups of Members to obstruct all private members' legislation, and noting in particular the blocking of the widely-supported Fur Farming (Prohibition) Bill, urges the Select Committee on the Modernisation of the House of Commons to review how Private Members' Bills are handled.

This motion has been signed by a total of 72 MPs.
