§ As amended (in the Standing Committee), considered; to be read the Third time To-morrow.
§ The remaining Orders were read, and postponed.
§ Mr. KellyOn a point of Order. On a Bill that was read out—the Inheritance (Family Provision) Bill—I heard one hon. Member who was opposed to the whole Bill give you, Mr. Speaker, as the date for it coming on the Order Paper again, 24th July. Is it in order to use that method of destroying a Bill?
§ Mr. SpeakerThe hon. Member should have raised the point at the moment. I am afraid it is too late now.
§ Mr. Garro JonesFurther to that point of Order. May I submit that this is an entirely new method of opposing Bills which are brought forward by private Members. While it may not be in order to retract what has already been done, would it not be to the advantage of the House if you, Sir, were to indicate that that method of opposing Bills is not in order?
§ Mr. Michael BeaumontIs it not entirely for the promoters of the Bill to see that the proper date is given?
§ Mr. SpeakerIt is too late now to raise the point.
