The second page links out to http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmhansrd/cm100120/debtext/100120-0006.htm#10012070000001 [3]">http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmhansrd/cm100120/debtext/100120-0006.htm#10012070000001 which was its first reading (Tom Watson was granted 10 minutes in which to discuss his bill). He was called out of order and his bill wasn't read. Hope that helps. -D David T.
