§ Mr. AttleeMay I ask the right hon. Gentleman whether it is intended that the House shall sit late to-night, and for what purpose the Eleven o' Clock Rule is being suspended?
§ Sir J. SimonIt is hoped to conclude the discussion on the Air-Raid Precautions Bill and the Committee stage of the necessary Money Resolution by half-past seven. Afterwards it is proposed to take the Committee stages of the National Health Insurance (Juvenile Contributors and Young Persons) Bill, the Scottish Housing Money Resolution, and, if there is time, the Blind Persons Bill. It is proposed to take the business up to and including the Scottish Housing Money Resolution, but it is not our intention to keep the House sitting late, and we do not propose to enter upon the consideration of the Blind Persons Bill at a late hour.
§
Motion made, and Question put,
That the Proceedings con Government Business be exempted, at this day's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[Sir J. Simon.]
