HC Deb 04 April 1960 vol 621 c1
Mr. Grant-Ferris

On a point of order. Owing to the fact that it is quite impossible for one Member of Parliament to be in two places at the same time, would you, Mr. Speaker, care to rule that the City of London will lose none of its privileges by reason of the fact that you occupy a higher place than is normal today?

Mr. Speaker

I do not so rule, because it is the House which confers the privileges, and only the House can take them away, but I am obliged to the hon. Gentleman for his courtesy.
