HC Deb 20 July 1925 vol 186 cc1839-41
Mr. CLYNES

Would the Prime Minister inform us in respect of which items on the Order Paper it is proposed to suspend the Eleven o'Clock Rule?

The PRIME MINISTER

Items 3 and 4 (Public Works Loans Bill and Sandwich Port and Haven Bill), neither of which I believe is contentious.

Motion made, and Question put, That this day, notwithstanding anything in Standing Order No. 15, Business other than Business of Supply may be taken before Eleven of the Clock," and that the Proceedings on Government Business be exempted at this day's Sitting from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[The Prime Minister.]
