Westminster this week

Several key debates this week - starting with the social action and responsibility bill, and the vote on women bishops tonight; also debated this week are the fixed term parliaments act and the Recall Bill starts it's long journey through the Houses of Parliament on Tuesday. I have meetings galore with everyone from the Air Ambulance association and several constituents who are coming to London to discuss energy saving plans. This week is Big Energy Savings week and our 2014-2015 energy booklet is nearly finished and will be launched this week. Questions to departments this week include defence, health, wales, and transport and on Friday we have another Private members Bill day, which plays havoc with the diary.
On Wednesday we have the Labour Party's attempt to get rid of lord Freud. I will blog about this more later in the week, but I am certain he should not be dismissed.
