"From where I sit it is like the radar screen is lighting up all over the House. We are here to vote. We have had a point made by Mrs Berès which, judging from the applause, many colleagues obviously appreciate. A large number of people wish to speak. If it is on this, you are not getting the floor.
With regard to the secret ballot, Rule 136 does not limit the scope of the use of a secret ballot. What it does require is that in order to use a secret ballot, a signed request must be made by at least one-fifth of the Members of the House, namely 126 Members. The services have received the signatures of 140 Members requesting a secret ballot. It seems to me in line with the Rules of Procedure of the House that the 140 are entitled to make the request. It is certainly open to Mrs Berès and others to ask the 140 if they wish to withdraw. But if they do not withdraw then the Rules are clear.
I would ask whether the 140 have a spokesman to comment on the question of withdrawal?"@en1
