<p>Business announced by the Government was thin on the ground for Wednesday, meaning the Commons began sitting began at 11.30am and ended at 3.27pm.</p>
<p>The Commons usually runs until 7.30pm on Wednesdays.</p>

<p>Labour’s Diana Johnson said the situation was “bang out of order”, writing on Twitter: <em>“Considering Brexit is just 51 days away this is totally irresponsible!”</em></p>
<p>SNP chief whip Patrick Gray said: <em>“Seemingly the Tory Government thinks there’s nothing worth debating or discussing.”</em></p>
<p>Proceedings began with Cabinet Office questions followed by Prime Minister’s Questions.</p>
<p>Ten minutes were then used up by the introduction of a backbench bill, before a debate on two social security motions.</p>
<p>The adjournment debate focused on prostate cancer and started at 2.37pm rather than 7pm, as would normally be the case.</p>
<p>Elsewhere in Parliament, MPs were involved in afternoon debates in Westminster Hall – their second debating chamber – while proceedings in the House of Lords chamber began at 3pm and were predicted to run until 9pm.</p>
<p>The Government last week announced it was cancelling the February recess for MPs, and legislation connected to Brexit still has to be approved.</p>
