HC Deb 21 June 1920 vol 130 c1793

As amended (in the Standing Committee), considered.

Mr. SPEAKER

The first new Clause in the name of the hon. Member for Finchley (Colonel Newman) ["Discretion of Relief to Poor Tenants"] should come as an Amendment to Clause 5, and the second new Clause of which the hon. Member has also given notice ["Increase of Rent to Flats"] should come as an Amendment to Clause 2. The third new Clause ["Net Rent to Flats"] should come as an Amendment to Clause 12. The new Clause standing in the names of the hon. Member for Hulme (Major Nall) and the hon. Member for Moss Side (Lieut.-Colonel Hurst) ["Occupation of Unoccupied Dwelling-houses"] is beyond the scope of the Bill. The new Clause standing in the name of the hon. Member for Central Edinburgh (Mr. W. Graham) and other hon. Members ["Restriction on Recovery of Possession, etc., in the Case of Strike or Lock-out"] should come as an Amendment to Clause 5. The new Clause standing in the name of the hon. Member for Wimbledon (Mr. Hood) ["Voidance of Notice to Give up Possession of Dwelling-house"] should come as an Amendment to Clause 5. The second Clause standing in that hon. Member's name ["Prohibition of Sale of Dwelling-house"] is beyond the scope of the Bill. As to the Clause standing in the names of the hon. and gallant Member for Accrington (Major Grey) and the hon. Member for Southwark, Central (Mr. Gilbert) ["Application of 32 &33 Vict., c. 67, Sch. 3"], I am doubtful. I think it is beyond the scope of the Bill, but, in any event, it should not be in the form of a new Clause, but should come as an Amendment to Clause 16.
