Will it happen?

See settlement rules for additional details.


Settlement details: Debate must be televised.

Question refers to an actual televised debate, not television coverage of the house of commons regular, daily debates.

Debates which occur as a result of an election being called are excluded - this refers to a debate in which the topic of climate, the environment, or any such "green" topic is the subject matter. If another topic is added to the debate, the question is not voided.



As reported by a major mainstream news source.

I would guess that the normal television debate they have during the general election would qualify if the environment comes up as an issue?
