§ 47. Mr. BOOTHBYasked the Prime Minister whether it is the intention of the Government to introduce proposals for the reform of the procedure of the House of Commons?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave on the 29th January last in reply to a question on this subject by my hon. and gallant Friend, the Member for Gainsborough (Captain Crookshank).
§ Mr. BOOTHBYIs my right hon. Friend not aware of the increasing dissatisfaction in the country with the fact that under our present procedure a great many matters of importance are either inadequately considered or not considered at all, and does he appreciate the necessity of taking early action in this matter?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am afraid that I cannot add to what I have already said.
