HC Deb 23 February 1931 vol 248 cc1773-5
Sir A. CHAMBERLAIN

May I ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the suspension of the Eleven o'Clock Rule to-night, how far he proposes to proceed with the business after Eleven o'Clock?

Mr. P. SNOWDEN

The purpose of the Motion to suspend the Eleven o'Clock Rule is to ensure the Third Reading of the Unemployment Insurance (No.2) Bill.

Sir A. CHAMBERLAIN

And no other business?

Mr. SNOWDEN

Not after that. Motion made, and Question put, That the Proceedings on Government Business be exempted, at this clay's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[Mr. Snowden.]

The House divided: Ayes,222; Noes,184.
