To ask the Chairman of Committees, following the debate in the House on 12 March on the Liaison Committee’s report (HL Deb, cols. 763–71), when the House will have an opportunity to consider the establishment of an International Relations Committee for the parliamentary session 2016–17 onwards.

The Liaison Committee will undertake its usual review of Select Committee activity across the Parliament when it meets early in June. As part of that review, I will invite the Committee to consider how best to seek the views of Members on the future shape of Select Committee activity. This will lead to a Report to the House.
