§ MR. C. R. SPENCER (Northamptonshire, Mid.)called the attention of the Speaker to a discrepancy in the record of the division which took place the previous night in the "Votes and Proceedings." On one page the Ayes were given as 236 and the Noes as 286; and on another page the Noes numbered only 285. Could that be rectified?
§ MR. SPEAKERreplied that unless some report was made to him by the Tellers, showing that there was an error, lie must accept their report as it stood. In all cases where a discrepancy of this description occurred it was more probable that a Clerk in the division lobby had omitted to tick off the name of an hon. Member than that the Tellers had erred.
