HC Deb 14 April 1948 vol 449 cc979-1123

As amended (in the Standing Committee), considered.

3.34 P.m.

The Secretary of State for the Home Department (Mr. Ede)

I beg to move: That all new Clauses of which notice has been given before the Clause standing in the name of Mr. Sydney Silverman (Suspension of death penalty) be postponed till after the consideration of that Clause. This is to carry out the arrangement mentioned by my right hon. Friend the Lord President of the Council when Business was announced last Thursday.

Question put, and agreed to.
