HC Deb 27 July 1922 vol 157 cc807-8

Resolution reported, That, towards making good the Supply granted to His Majesty for the service of the year ending on the 31st day of March, 1923, the sum of £333,266,574 be granted out of the Consolidated Fund of the United Kingdom.

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

Captain W. BENN

On a point of Order, Mr. Deputy-Speaker, may I respectfully inquire whether report of Ways and Means is included in the business of Supply?

Mr. DEPUTY-SPEAKER (Mr. James Hope)

The whole business of Supply proper is finished, but, technically, Ways and Means is part of the business of Supply.

Captain BENN

In that case, may I direct your attention to Standing Order No. 15, which says that no business other than the business of Supply can be taken on Thursday?

Mr. DEPUTY-SPEAKER

I have said that Ways and Means is part of the business of Supply.

Captain BENN

Then I will raise my objection subsequently.

Bill ordered to be brought in upon the said Resolution by the Chairman of Ways and Means, Sir Robert Horne and Mr. Hilton Young.
