HC Deb 26 November 1914 vol 68 cc1485-6

Read a second time.

Resolved, That this House will immediately resolve itself into the Committee on the Bill.—[Mr. McKinnon Wood.]

Bill accordingly considered in Committee, and reported, without Amendment; read the third time, and passed.

The remaining Orders were read and postponed.

Whereupon MR. SPEAKER, pursuant to the Order of the House of the 12th November, proposed the Question, "That this House do now adjourn."

Mr. BOOTH

On that Motion, I would like to make an appeal to the Government that next year they will try, if they possibly can, to avoid rushing legislation as they have done now. There are many points that might be raised in Committee, but one hesitates to delay measures on an occasion like this for fear of jeopardising them. I hope we may not again be put to the strain to which we have been subjected just now.

Question put, and agreed to.

Adjourned accordingly at Twenty-one minutes after Eleven o'clock.
