I was looking at some Bills on the Parliament website, and I wanted to find out more info about what some of the stages abbreviations meant. So I clicked on the link to take me to this page.
And I was delighted to learn that 'ping pong' is a proper term, when discussing the progress of legislation through Parliament.
Brilliant -the mental images of members of the House of Lords and House of Commons playing Ping Pong in Parliament will keep me amused all day!! :-)
Off to have flashbacks to Pong now!

- L - Commons' Amendments considered in the House of Lords
- C - Lords' Amendments considered in the House of Commons
