835 Fixed-term <strong>Parliament</strong>s Bill 1 DECEMBER 2010 Fixed-term <strong>Parliament</strong>s Bill 836<br />

[Mr Harper]<br />

The Opposition’s amendment tries to specify the text<br />

of the no confidence motion, but does not try to achieve<br />

equivalent clarity as regards the motion of confidence<br />

that would have to be passed within 14 days by an<br />

alternative Government in order to avoid a general<br />

election. The amendment is trying to achieve some<br />

certainty—that was what the hon. Member for Rhondda<br />

said—but I do not think it does. I also do not think it is<br />

desirable or appropriate to try to set out the text of the<br />

motions in the Bill.<br />

The Government think that clause 2(2) provides a<br />

clear and practical mechanism that gives statutory effect<br />

to a vote of no confidence. I have set out the Government’s<br />

concerns about the amendments and I hope that hon.<br />

Members will not seek to press them to a vote.<br />

Mr Shepherd: I should like to press amendment 5 to a<br />

vote, with the consent of my hon. Friend the Member<br />

for Stone (Mr Cash).<br />

The Second Deputy Chairman: The question is, that<br />

the amendment be made.<br />

Hon. Members: Aye.<br />

Hon. Members: No.<br />

The Second Deputy Chairman: I think the Noes have it.<br />

Mr Shepherd: We wanted to press the amendment to<br />

a Division, Ms Primarolo.<br />

The Second Deputy Chairman: I need to hear you<br />

pressing the amendment, Mr Shepherd. I need you to<br />

shout louder for me. I am happy to do it again, but I<br />

need to hear the vote.<br />

Question put, That the amendment be made.<br />

The Committee divided: Ayes 6, Noes 498.<br />
