HC Deb 10 July 1940 vol 362 c1181

3.56 p.m.

The Solicitor-General

I beg to move, in page line 13, to leave out from "1867" to "is," in line 15.

I have already explained the object of the Amendment. It is simply to strike out the words within the brackets, it being in accordance with the Canadian custom not to give these facilities, which might tend to make Members of Parliament unduly careless about their work.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Clause 2 ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Preamble agreed to.

Bill reported, with an Amendment; as amended, considered; read the Third time, and passed, with an Amendment.
