[Bill 16.]

Dr. Morgan

On a point of Order. On page 637 of the Order Paper, notice is given of the presentation of a Bill by Mr. Secretary Westwood.

Mr. Speaker

To what is the hon. Member referring? I did not hear him very well.

Dr. Morgan

I am referring, Sir, to the first Bill at the commencement of Public Business to be moved by Mr. Secretary Westwood. May I ask, Mr. Speaker, whether that is a mistake?

Mr. Speaker

I called Mr. Woodburn, and not Mr. Westwood.

Dr. Morgan

It is on the Order Paper as Mr. Westwood.

Mr. Speaker

Yes, but not on my Order Paper.

Dr. Morgan

Am I to understand from that, Sir, that two sets of Order Papers are issued, one for you and one for Members?

Mr. Speaker

It was not printed on mine; it was written on mine.
