Speeches by Ghani.

“Order. Just to help Members, let me say that those looking to intervene have to both stand and make a sound; otherwise, the Member who has the floor may not be aware. If requests for interventions are not taken, those looking to intervene must sit down. They may then stand up and try again.”

“Order. An intervention cannot have examples; it is short and to the point. What is the question?”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“A substantial opening speech there. I call the Minister.”

“Andrew Griffith, match that passion!”

“Order. I remind Members that we refer to colleagues not by their first or second names, but by their constituency.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“I call the Chair of the Justice Committee.”

“I am grateful to the hon. Member for giving notice of this point of order. I have had no indication from Ministers that they intend to come to the House to make a statement on this matter, but I note that it is Home Office questions on Monday and he still has time to table an oral question to the Home Secretary.”
