§ VISCOUNT CRANBORNE (Rochester)I beg to ask the hon. Member for the Rushcliffe Division of Nottinghamshire, in reference to the Places of Worship (Sites) Bill, whether, in the event of that Bill being read a second time this evening, he, as being in charge of the Bill, will move that it be referred to the Standing Committee on Law, and will there agree to Amendments substituting for the machinery in the Bill the well-known machinery of a Provisional Order by the Local Government Board?
§ *MR. J. E. ELLIS (Nottingham, Rushcliffe)In reply, Sir, to the question of the noble Lord, I do propose to move the reference of the Places of Worship (Sites) Bill on its Second Reading to the Grand Committee on Law. The promoters of the Bill will in Committee agree to the substitution of the Local Government Board for the machinery provided in the Bill. Whether this should be by Provisional Order or by some more simple and less costly method they will be quite ready to discuss and consider.
