HC Deb 08 March 1940 vol 358 c735

Order for Consideration, as amended, read.

11.4 a.m.

Mr. George Hall (Aberdare)

I beg to move, "That the Bill, as amended, be recommitted to a Committee of the Whole House in respect of Clause II."

As the House will remember, on Monday last there was an arrangement whereby we should defer any explanation, discussion or Debate on Clauses 10 and 11. We are very anxious this morning to have some explanation with regard to Clause 11. It is rather complicated, and for that reason we ask that the Bill should be recommitted.

Question put, and agreed to.

Bill considered in Committee.

[Sir DENNIS HERBERT in the Chair.)
