Select Committee on Modernisation of the House of Commons Written Evidence

Submission from Dr Hywel Francis MP

  Thank you for your letter of 29 June 2004 concerning the review of sitting hours.

  My inclination is to largely keep with the present system but l would be open to persuasion in relation to other options which safeguard the principles underpinning recent changes, particularly with regard to family friendly hours.
