§ Sir ARTHUR GRIFFITH-BOSCAWENasked whether the right hon. Gentleman will reconsider the decision of the Government to refuse facilities for the further stages of the Religious Census (Wales) Bill, in view of the fact that the First Reading was carried by 233 votes to 17 and that several Members of the Government voted in the majority?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am unable to give facilities from the time at the disposal of His Majesty's Government.
§ Viscount WOLMERIf the right hon. Gentleman refuses to give facilities, why did several Members of the Government vote for the Bill?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe Noble Lord does not seem to appreciate that it would be a very unusual thing to refuse leave to introduce a Bill.
