Westminster Hall debates are held in the Grand Committee Room, a specially converted space off Westminster Hall. All debates here are neutrally worded, general motions that begin “That the House has considered [a specific matter]”.
The principal Deputy Speaker, the Chairman of Ways and Means, has overall responsibility for the business at all sittings in Westminster Hall. Debates are chaired by an MP selected from the Panel of Chairs.
MPs cannot vote on, or propose an amendment to, motions in Westminster Hall. If the question is challenged the Chair reports to the House of Commons, and this could lead to a vote in the Commons Chamber.
