Thank you - that's interesting.

Private member's bills are explained here. Basically it's a proposed law introduced by a "private" member of parliament, rather than by the government. Each parliamentary session, 20 MPs are chosen by ballot to be given the opportunity to introduce such a bill. As I say, though, unless they receive government support they generally run out of time for debate, and don't get anywhere.
