Labour proposes urgent debate on Wilson resignation

Labour has failed to force a snap debate in Parliament on matters relating to last week’s resignation of Supreme Court Justice Bill Wilson.

Parliament’s Speaker Lockwood Smith ruled out the debate on two grounds.

First, he said, as Justice Wilson’s resignation does not take effect until 5pm on 5 November 2010, the proposed topic of debate has not yet technically occurred.
