Reinstatement motion

Also inthe Order Paper: the reinstatement motion. From the look of it, the government is reinstating everything; it can then quietly dump any bits of government business it doesn't want to pursue in a couple of weeks when no-one is paying attention. It also likely means that there will be no ballot until March at the earliest, as it will take a few member's days for the backlog of bills to work their way through the system.
