§ Mr. Vanghan - Davies, Mr. George Doughty, and Mr. Harry Foster nominated Members of the Committee.
§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That General Goldsworthy be another Member of the Committee. " — (Sir William Walrond.)
MR. GIBSON BOWLES (Lynn Regis)I hope it will not be thought it is from any want of respect for the hon. and gallant Member that I propose to vote against this resolution. But I wish to make a short explanatory statement of the reasons why I think he should not be a member of the Committee. The House is aware that this Committee is to sit upon a Bill which proposes to regulate the number of inches a sole shall measure before it is capable of being sold. It must be, I believe, eight inches. The House is also aware. I presume, that there is no provision enabling the Committee to send for persons, Papers, etc., and I believe it is intended that the Committee shall take no evidence whatever, but shall simply have the Bill before it as it is. That being the case, it becomes extremely important that the Committee should be a fair one, and that it should be composed of persons who have some knowledge of sea fisheries. It is proposed that it should consist of thirteen members, and only three of these are known to be against the Bill. The Government will therefore have a majority of ten. As regards the hon. and gallant General, he is, we know, a gallant soldier, and he is also Member for Hammersmith; but as I am credibly informed that there are no sea fish to be found at Hammersmith I cannot understand how he can be expected to have any local knowledge of sea fisheries. He occupies a useful position as Chairman of the Kitchen Committee, and I am bound to say that under his auspices there has been some amelioration of the complaints as to the supply of food to Members of this House. But even that would not render him competent to deal with sea fish, until at any rate they arrive at the boiling stage. Consequently, Sir, I do think the hon. and gallant Gentleman is not the sort of Member to be placed upon this Committee. He would necessarily be favourable to the Government. I will not say that he would vote pre- 751 cisely as they wish, but I do think it highly probable that he would do so. There are other Members of this House who have a certain knowledge of sea fisheries who have not been invited to join the Committee. I shall mention no names, but I have observed that almost all those who have taken a prominent part against this Bill, and who have some knowledge of sea fisheries, have been eminently distinguished by the Government by being left outside the Committee. I end my remarks by repeating the hope that it will not be supposed for one moment that I am taking this action because of any want of belief in either
§ the military or Parliamentary capacity of my hon. and gallant friend, who I am sorry to see is not in his place. I do it solely because I think there are too many Government Members in favour of the Bill on the Committee, and because I hold that there ought to be more Members who have a knowledge of sea fisheries. The hon. and gallant Member possesses no such knowledge, and I shall therefore be obliged to take a division against him.
§ Question put.

§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That five be the quorum of the Committee."—(Sir William, Walrond.)
§ * SIR J. COLOMB (Great Yarmouth)had the following notice on the Paper—
That the Committee have power to send for persons, Papers, and records. That seven be the quorum.754 He said: I understand that I am unable to move that the Committee "have power to send for persons, Papers, and records," and my hon. and gallant friend is not permitted to move that the evidence of the Royal Commission and Select Committee be referred to this Committee. In fact, there is no provision for the Committee taking any evidence at all, and under these circumstances I think the quorum should be raised. I propose to take out the word "five" and put in "seven."
§ MR. SPEAKERThe hon. Member cannot move that Amendment to a Motion 755 under Standing Order XVI. He can only vote against the proposal that five be the quorum.
