Briefing produced by the House of Commons Library (CBP 7438) shows that the number of statutory instruments laid before the House of Commons peaked at 1,885 in the 2005-06 session, compared to 1,378 last session and 540 so far this session.</p> answering member printed Lord Nash question first answered 18/02/2016 16:56:21 answering member 4270 label Biography information for Lord Nash attachment 1 file name HL6009 attachment CBP-7438 (1) 170216.pdf title CBP 7438
