HC Deb 29 June 1917 vol 95 c693
Mr. GULLAND

May I ask the Joint Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury which of the Orders on the Paper he proposes to take to-day?

Lord E. TALBOT

We propose to take the first five Orders.

Mr. HOGGE

Is it proposed to take anything more than the Second Heading of the Naval and Military War Pensions, etc. (Transfer of Powers) Bill?

Lord E. TALBOT

We shall take the Second Reading.

Mr. HOGGE

Not the first stages?

Lord E. TALBOT

No.

Mr. KING

On a point of Order, Mr. Speaker. With regard to the first Order, Courts (Emergency Powers) Bill—this Bill cannot now be obtained in the Vote Office. Therefore, the Lords Amendments, which are only intelligible if we have the Bill itself, are really inappropriate to be discussed here to-day. We do not know what they mean.

Mr. SPEAKER

I shall be happy to give the hon. Member my copy of the Bill.
