HC Deb 09 March 1945 vol 408 c2397

Ordered: That where a Public Bill (not being a Bill to confirm a Provisional Order or Certificate) is ordered to be read a second time on a day appointed, and it appears that the Standing Orders relative to Private Business may be applicable to the Bill, the Examiners of Petitions for Private Bills shall examine the Bill with respect to the applicability thereto of the Standing Orders, and shall proceed and report forthwith, and the Order of the day relating to the Bill shall not be affected thereby; but if the Examiner reports that any Standing Order applicable to the Bill has not been complied with, and the Standing Orders Committee report that such Standing Order ought not to be dispensed with, the Order of the day relating to the Bill shall be discharged.—[Mr. Eden.]

To be a Standing Order of this House.
