HC Deb 19 July 1922 vol 156 cc2240-2

Considered in Committee, and reported, without Amendment.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be now read the Third time."

Mr. WATERSON

I hope the hon. Gentleman will not desire to secure the Third Reading of this Bill this evening. We have been exceptionally good in giving him the Committee stage. He might give us an opportunity to look further at the Bill in order that we may see what we can make of it, so far as the Third Reading is concerned. I suggest that the hon. Gentleman should leave it at least till to-morrow so that we can review the position.

Mr. LANE-FOX

This is a Bill that excites no controversy. It settles the affairs of two charities concerned with very poor people, and it is very necessary to get this Measure through quickly so that it may pass the other House before the Session closes.

The remaining Orders were read, and postponed.

It being after Half-past Eleven of the Clock upon Wednesday evening, Mr. SPEAKER adjourned the House, without Question put, pursuant to the Standing Order.

Adjourned at Two minutes after Twelve o'Clock.
