HC Deb 06 July 1931 vol 254 cc1730-3
Mr. STANLEY BALDWIN

In the event of the Motion standing in the name of the Prime Minister being carried, may I ask what Orders it is proposed to take to-night, and also what Vote will be taken on Thursday in Committee of Supply?

The PRIME MINISTER

I hope we shall get the first Order on the Paper and also make some progress with the second. I do not propose to ask the House to sit very late, somewhere about midnight at the outside. With regard to Thursday, the Vote for the India Office will be put down for consideration.

Motion made, and Question put, That the Proceedings on Government Business be exempted, at this day's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[The Prime Minister.]

The House divided: Ayes, 238; Noes, 151.
