HC Deb 30 January 1930 vol 234 cc1219-366

Order for consideration of Lords Amendments read.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Lords Amendments be now-considered."

Sir ARTHUR STEEL-MAITLAND

May I ask whether, as is somewhat customary on these occasions, either the Minister in charge of the Bill or whoever is leading on the Government Bench will give the House any general idea of what course it is proposed to pursue with regard to the Amendments?

The MINISTER of LABOUR (Miss Bondfield)

I take it that the order will be to take the Amendments seriatim.

Question put, and agreed to.

Lords Amendments considered accordingly.
