  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  
  The majority of MPs voted for a proposed new timetable for the House of Commons[1] on Wednesday the 17th of April 2013, to delay the start time from 11.30 am to 2.30 pm, and to cancel Prime Minister's questions, and other question sessions. The change was proposed to allow MPs to attend the funeral of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Thatcher ex Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher]. The reason for canceling the question sessions was given by Andrew Lansley MP[2] as:
  
  :Members should not immediately enter into the character of business customary at Wednesdayâs questions
