Sir George Young (North-West Hampshire) (Con)

This afternoon the House has heard two serious and sobering statements on terrorism and climate change, so we warmly welcome the good news in today’s announcement that Her Majesty’s diamond jubilee will be recognised by an extra bank holiday. Conservative Members give our full support to this proposal, as indeed we did to my hon. Friend the Member for Romford (Andrew Rosindell), who put forward the idea in a ten-minute Bill that had all-party support and was given its First Reading last November.
