Parliament In The 21st Century (No. 2)

EDM number 1085 in 2016-17, proposed by David Winnick on 20/03/2017.
Categorised under the topic of Parliamentary procedure.

That this House considers it would be more appropriate for messages from HM the Queen to be notified accordingly at the despatch box rather than by the current ceremonial practice of a whip coming into the Chamber carrying their wand of office, a stick and then walking to the table of the House to announce that message.

This motion has been signed by a total of 5 MPs.
