HC Deb 19 August 1909 vol 9 c1662

As amended (in the Standing Committee), considered.

A Clause prohibiting unauthorised undertakers from competing with statutory undertakers)—[Mr. Scott Dickson]—brought up, and read the first and second time:—

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Clause be added to the Bill."

Mr. R. D. HOLT moved, "That the Debate be now adjourned." I am surprised that we should have this new Clause at this late hour in a Bill dealing with a subject upon which a good many people feel strongly.

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD of TRADE (Mr. H. J. Tennant)

I shall not resist the motion.

Debate to be resumed this day (Friday).
