§ Sir J. GILMOURI beg to move, in page 24, line 18, to leave out the word "milled," and to insert instead thereof the words:
produced (whether by milling or mixing).The intention of this Amendment is to ensure that the output of a miller means not simply the flour milled by him, as stated in the definition as drafted, but the flour produced by him whether by milling or mixing. The definition of output will thus be made strictly comparable 663 with the definition of the word "flour" appearing in Clause 18, Sub-section (3), which defines flour as including all products produced by the milling of wheat, except substances separated by the milling, such as wheat offals. The Amendment is accordingly in the nature of a drafting Amendment to ensure complete correspondence between the definition of "flour output" and the definition of "flour" itself.
§ Sir S. CRIPPSWill the right hon. Gentleman tell us how you produce flour by mixing?
§ Sir J. GILMOURThat is a technical matter. I am advised by the trade that it is necessary to have this description in, and in the circumstances I have accepted that advice.
§ Amendment agreed to.

The following Amendment stood upon the Order Paper in the name of Brigadier-General BROWN "In page 24, line 29, at the end, to insert the words:
on the basis of cash on delivery.
Brigadier-General BROWNThis Amendment was only put down because it referred to a Schedule which, I am afraid, will no longer be in Order, and as a previous Amendment of mine was ruled out there is no object in moving this one.
§ Sir S. CRIPPSI beg to move, "That the Chairman do report Progress, and ask leave to sit again."
I understand that the right hon. Gentleman in Charge of the Bill does not desire to go further with the consideration of the Bill to-day, in view of other business.
§ Sir J. GILMOURThat is so, and I will accept the proposal of the hon. and learned Gentleman.
§ Question put, and agreed to.
§ Committee report Progress; to sit again upon Monday next.
