HC Deb 16 May 1895 vol 33 c1428

MR. W. ALLEN (Newcastle-under-Lyme) moved that the Order for the Third Reading of this Bill be read and discharged.

THE MARQUESS OF CARMARTHEN (Lambeth, Brixton)

asked Mr. Speaker whether the hon. Member was in order in making that Motion, seeing that the House had ordered the Bill to be put down for May 23.

*MR. SPEAKER

said that the hon. Member was in order.

THE MARQUESS OF CARMARTHEN

Then I object.

*MR. SPEAKER

I understand that my predecessor always ruled that such a Motion, made by an hon. Member whose name is on the Bill, could not be objected to.

THE MARQUESS OF CARMARTHEN

Was not that, Sir, when the Motion was made on the day in which the Order was down on the Paper?

*MR. SPEAKER

That does not make any difference.

Order read and discharged.

House adjourned at Fifteen Minutes after Twelve o'clock.
