§ MR. WEIRI beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland, seeing that he has decided to block the Trawlers' Certificates Suspension Bill and the Sea Fisheries Regulation (Scotland) Bill, will he state whether it is his intention to block all Bills brought in by Scottish Members and thus prevent necessary reforms for the welfare of the people of Scotland.
§ MR. SINCLAIRNo, Sir.
§ MR. MENZIES (Lanarkshire, S.)Upon what principle has the right hon. Gentleman blocked private Members' Bills relating to Scotland?
§ MR. SINCLAIRIf the hon. Member will put down a Question I will give him an answer.
