I would suggest not enough MPs voting for it is quite a compelling reason.
I took it to mean that the Government (as requested by the Queen) have to make the time available in the Houses of Parliament, that is to say it needs to be in the Queens Speech.
The Houses of Parliament are not the Government.

Peers then get the same chance.
We of course, get the chance to lobby MP's and Peers.
