HC Deb 28 April 1937 vol 323 c349

"to protect those animals which though nominally wild are, in fact, kept in captivity or confinement, and released for the purpose of being hunted or coursed," presented accordingly, and read the First time; to be read a Second time upon Tuesday next, and to be printed. [Bill 131.]

Mr. Lees-Smith

May I repeat that still there is no Member of the Government present? May I move the Adjournment of the House?

The Postmaster-General (Major Tryon)

I am here.

Mr. Lees-Smith

May I call attention to the entire lack of proper conduct and respect to this House?

Mr. Speaker

The right hon. Gentleman cannot do that. Only a Member of the Government can move the Adjournment of the House at this stage.
