HC Deb 24 February 1920 vol 125 c1494 The following Question stood on the Paper in the name of Captain Redmond: To ask the Food Controller whether he is aware that control of hides has been in operation for two years in Ireland and, as a consequence, only a small group of registered markets are permitted to be held and merchants allowed to export; whether the Dublin advisory committee of control passed a resolution in favour of the removal of control; and for what reason, and for how long, the Ministry of Food intend to continue control?
Captain REDMOND

I have been asked to postpone this Question till to-morrow, and I should like to ask if I have three Questions on the Paper tomorrow, will I be precluded from asking this Question as well?

Mr. SPEAKER

One of the other Questions will have to give place to this.

Captain REDMOND

It is no fault of mine that this Question is going to appear again to-morrow, as I have been asked to put it down again. I have already given notice of other Questions, and I submit it is not fair that a Member should have to withdraw one of his Questions.

Mr. SPEAKER

That has always been the practice.
