of the Region’s MPs). Members of the public were welcome to witness
the event and the public gallery was well attended.

Grand Committees:
- Regional Minister's Question Time (45mins), with questions tabled in
advance by Members of Parliament
- Debate (around 1hrs 45mins) on 'Identifying the growth sectors of the
South East economy and ensuring their growth is maximised' with Jonathan
Shaw MP, Regional Minister for South East England, opening the debate.
