§ SIR W. LAWSON (Cumberland, Cockermouth)I beg to ask you, Mr. Speaker, with reference to the Motion for the Derby Adjournment, which has been defeated on the last two occasions, whether you are of opinion that it is competent for a private Member to again make such a Motion, which has previously been permitted as a matter of 43 custom, though not according to the strict Rules of Order of the House?
§ *MR. SPEAKERI do not think the defeat of the Resolution last year affects the right of a private Member to bring it forward again if the hon. Gentleman thinks there is anything in the circumstances of the present year which makes it different to those of last year.
