Motion made, and Question proposed, "That this House doth agree with the Committee in the said Resolution."

Mr. KING

Is it in order for Orders to be read out from the Table so inaudibly that one cannot hear them?

Mr. DEPUTY-SPEAKER

If the hon. Member has the Agenda Paper in front of him he can see what the matter is.

Mr. KING

There are so many items in the agenda that it is impossible to know which is being read. May I respectfully appeal that this Order may be read out again?

Mr. DEPUTY-SPEAKER

I think the hon. Member can follow.

Question put, and agreed to.
