HC Deb 06 December 1939 vol 355 c656
Mr. Dobbie

I desire to express my regret to you, Mr. Speaker, and to the House for an incident which arose yesterday during Question Time, in which I undoubtedly transgressed the Rules of the House. I had just returned from my constituency, where it had been represented to me by many of my constituents that much hardship was being caused by the inadequate allowances made to dependants of men serving with the Forces and the delay in dealing with grievances. This impressed me so much that I showed more temper than I really intended, and I trust that you, Sir, and the House will accept my apology.
