§ Viscount WOLMERasked whether the right hon. Gentleman is going to introduce a Payment of Members Bill this Session; and, if not, what adequate opportunity will there be for discussion of the conditions under which it is proposed that Members should be paid?
§ The PRIME MINISTERAs I stated on 18th May, an adequate opportunity for the discussion of this question will be afforded, and in order to meet the case we shall put down a Government Resolution on the Paper. The Government do not propose to introduce a Payment of Members Bill this Session.
§ Mr. ARTHUR LEECan the Prime Minister give us any idea when that Resolution is likely to be discussed?
§ The PRIME MINISTERNo, Sir; perhaps the hon. Member will put down a question.
