It is important to have realistic estimates to enable Ministers to plan the use of Parliamentary time. Over-optimistic timetables are unhelpful all round. Please be as specific as you can indicating where possible 'early', 'mid' or 'late' when naming a month. In cases of doubt, earliest and latest dates should be given for each stage. Account should be taken of Parliamentary Counsel's absence on leave (normally for the whole of August).
