HC Deb 13 March 1934 vol 287 cc200-1
Mr. ATTLEE

May I ask the Lord President of the Council how far he proposes that the House shall go to-night in the event of the Motion being carried?

The LORD PRESIDENT of the COUNCIL (Mr. Baldwin)

It is proposed to take the first six Orders. I may add that it is not the intention of the Government to ask the House to sit late nor is it the Government's intention, in pursuance of an observation made across the Floor of the House to hon. Members below the Gangway, to take consideration of the British Sugar (Subsidy) Bill at an unreasonably late hour.

Motion made, and Question put, That the Proceedings on Government Business be exempted, at this day's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[Mr. Baldwin.]

The House divided: Ayes, 270; Noes, 56.
