House of Commons Trivia

Posted by Devin Johnston on January 7th, 2010

Question: Parliament is prorogued until March 3, 2010. How many days will the House of Commons have been sitting between June 23, 2007 and March 2, 2010?

Answer: The House of Commons will have sat for just 259 out of those 983 days. This means that over a period of almost three years, the House of Commons will only have been sitting 26.4% of the time.
