HC Deb 14 July 1947 vol 440 c174

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Clause stand part of the Bill."

Mr. Nicholson

I think it would be proper for me to express my opinion that it is a great pity that there is no Preamble to the Bill. I think a Preamble would be a graceful act on the part of the Government.

The Chairman

I do not think that question arises here.

Question put, and agreed to.

Clause ordered to stand part of the Bill.

First Schedule agreed to.
