If the implications of this are not immediately clear, once you have read them, consider in particular the dates of the questions against your own memories of particularly large parties, where the MPs in these debates are based, and that it takes about two years for Whitehall and Parliament to turn suggestions from those in power into the laws.
Bear in mind also MPs get loads of queries from constituents and its often only really big issues that affect a number of people in the constituency that go as far as a question being asked in parliament..

Krankie hurt in beanstalk tumble
Children's entertainer Wee Jimmy Krankie has been taken to hospital with head injuries after falling 20ft off a pantomime beanstalk in Glasgow.
The 57-year-old is starring in a production of Jack and the Beanstalk at the city's Pavilion Theatre and fell off the prop during a matinee show.
Fellow cast member Scottish soap star Gary Hollywood was also said to have been injured in the fall on Wednesday.
The duo's conditions were described as stable by the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.
Show stopper
The Wednesday evening performance at the theatre has now been cancelled and the audience who saw the fall during the day have been given a full refund.
A spokesman for the Scottish Ambulance Service said: "Wee Jimmy Krankie fell out of the beanstalk on to the stage and was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary."
Wee Jimmy, a cheeky Scottish schoolboy, is played by actress Janette Tough, who stars alongside her husband Ian Tough in their double act The Krankies.
Mr Tough was not on stage at the time of the accident but went to hospital with his wife.
The couple are now semi-retired but throughout the 1980s were a fixture on national television making their name on the Crackerjack children's TV programme.
They hosted their own show, The Krankies Club, on ITV before finally disappearing from the screens in 1991.
They have been starring in the Christmas production in Glasgow since it opened at the end of last month and are due to finish their run at the end of January.

FI : BitTorrent site raided – site moderators nicked! http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/12/14/finnish_police_raid_bittorrent_site/
Quote:
Police in Finland have raided the operations of a popular BitTorrent file download site, seizing equipment and arresting four people who ran the site. Around 30 volunteers who helped moderate the site were also arrested.
Police say the site had 10,000 users, all Finnish, who downloaded illegally-copied content worth millions of euros. The site featured 6000 torrents, including film, videos, music and games.
If convicted, the site operators face jail of up to two years and are liable for claims for damages from content owners.
According to Finnish-language newspaper reports, the police liaised with Interpol and Elisa, a local ISP, in their investigations.
The Motion Picture Ass. of America (MPAA) today announced (PDF) that it is pursuing civil actions against hundreds of server operators of BitTorrent, eDonkey and DirectConnect P2P file-swapping networks, in its war on internet movie piracy.
In addition, the MPAA is co-operating in criminal investigations with police in Finland, the Netherlands and France, so it is reasonable to infer that reports of raids in more European countries are likely to surface shortly.
BitTorrent speeds file transfers by segmenting content and downloading parts from multiple users rather than a single server. As you receive a file, so other BitTorrent users are able to grab it from you in the same way. The idea is to ensure a more even sharing of bandwidth between participants. It's not a classic P2P application since it's about improving download performance rather than sharing files per se. Files are found not through the application itself but through links on websites, and it's these initial servers that the MPAA and co. are targeting. ®
UK : Wales/Cymru : Dirty Sanchez tour cancelled after drill incident One ouch too far...big up University Hospital Cardiff for patching the chap up though (I hope C4 may consider a financial contribution towards these costs?)

Drill mishap upsets 'Sanchez' tour
Fans of TV series Dirty Sanchez will not be surprised to hear their live tour has been cancelled after a group member put a drill through his hand.
The only shock is that he did it accidentally rather than on purpose.
Imagine three reckless Welshmen and a Londoner all but torturing themselves and you have the programme format.
The accident happened as a 25-year-old known to admirers as Pritchard was filming a new series of the MTV and Channel 4 show.
He was using a high-speed electric drill when it slipped and went straight through his left hand.
The accident, described as "pretty horrific", meant he needed emergency surgery at the University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff.
The group were due to perform a live "homecoming" show at Cardiff University students' union on Wednesday but had to cancel it and three other shows as a result of the accident.
They have now rescheduled the Cardiff date for 14 March 2005.
The four - Welsh trio Matthew Pritchard, Lee Dainton, Pancho (Mike Locke) and Londoner Dan Joyce - have become required viewing through their extreme stunt shows, which air on MTV and Channel 4.
They started out as extreme skateboarders but developed into increasingly more outrageous pranksters, in the same vein as the US TV show Jackass.
Nettles
Some of their eye-watering, cringe-making stunts, all captured on camera, have included sandpapering their backsides until they bleed, nailing sensitive parts of their bodies to wood and jumping naked into nettles.
The quartet genuinely seem to enjoy their wincingly painful exploits, which perhaps explains the attraction of the show to the non-sadists among us.
The remaining - and so far uninjured - trio decided against starting the tour without Pritchard.
Dainton issued a general apology to fans deprived of the full-frontal Dirty Sanchez experience in the (tortured) flesh.
But he explained: "We felt it wouldn't be the same without him.
"It would be like the Rolling Stones without Jagger."
A MESSAGE FROM IRAQ Check this video - it is the unspoken truth about the war we have inflicted on iraq - and a piognant remeinder of how closed minded our own, supposedly "free" press is.
Even if you think the war was justified, this is a unique insight into how the war is seen by the people it affects.

Press Release

FBI Seizes IMC Servers in the UK
US authorities issued a federal order to Rackspace's office in the US ordering them to provide Indymedia's hardware located in London to the requesting agency. Rackspace is one of Indymedia's web hosting providers with offices in the US and London. Rackspace complied, without first notifying Indymedia, and turned over Indymedia's server in the UK. This affects some 20+ Indymedia sites worldwide.
Since the subpoena was issued to Rackspace and not to Indymedia, the reasons for this action are still unknown to Indymedia. Talking to Indymedia volunteers, Rackspace stated that "they cannot provide Indymedia with any information regarding the order." ISPs have received gag orders in similar situations which prevent them from updating the concerned parties on what is happening.
It is unclear to Indymedia how and why a server that is outside the US jurisdiction can be seized by US authorities.
At the same time a second server was taken down at Rackspace which provided streaming radio to several radio stations, BLAG (linux distro), and a handful of miscellanous things.
The last few months have seen numerous attacks on independent media by the US Federal Government. In August the Secret Service used a subpoena in an attempt to disrupt the NYC IMC before the RNC by trying to get IP logs from an ISP in the US and the Netherlands. Last month the FCC shut down community radio stations around the US. Two weeks ago the FBI requested that ndymedia takes down a post on the Nantes IMC that had a photo of some undercover Swiss police and IMC volunteers in Seattle were visited by the FBI on the same issue. On the other hand, Indymedia and other independent media organisations were successfull with their victories for example against Diebold and the Patroit Act. Today however, the US authorities shut down IMCs around the world.
The list of affected local media collectives includes Ambazonia, Uruguay, Andorra, Poland, Western Massachusetts, Nice, Nantes, Lilles, Marseille (all France), Euskal Herria (Basque Country), Liege, East and West Vlaanderen, Antwerpen (all Belgium), Belgrade, Portugal, Prague, Galiza, Italy, Brazil, UK, part of the Germany site, and the global Indymedia Radio site.
