PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
REGIONAL QUESTION TIME (19 December 2000)
Motion Details
That this House notes the greater need to promote regions within the United Kingdom in light of the fact that London, Scotland and Wales have their own representative bodies; recognises the English regions' need to be represented adequately in Parliament and the need to hold government accountable for decisions on a local level; and calls on Question Time sessions to be introduced in the House of Commons for each English region so that members can discuss in more detail issues relating to their locality.
