§ Mr. GINNELLI desire, Mr. Speaker, to ask you a question, of which I have given you private notice: whether it was in order for the Chief Secretary's friends, Members of this House, when the count bell rung last Friday evening, to prevent the formation of a House by standing at both extremities of this Chamber and dissuading hon. Members from entering when the Irish Government was charged with complicity in crimes in Dublin Castle, and whether you have any means of preventing a recurrence of this abuse?
§ Mr. SPEAKERI am afraid I have no means of preventing circumstances similar to those to which the hon. Member refers; neither are they out of order. Such things have occurred before.
§ Mr. GINNELLWill you allow me to ask the Prime Minister whether he will give an early opportunity for discussing this matter?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am afraid I am not in a position to do so.
