TIMOTHY JOHN EVANS BILL (Hansard, 23 June 1961)

HC Deb 23 June 1961 vol 642 cc1934-5 1934

§ Order for Second Reading read.

An Hon. Member
Object.

§ Mr. Hector Hughes
May I raise a point of order on this Bill, Mr. Speaker? Is not this an abuse of the procedure of the House, and should not the hon. Member's name be put in HANSARD to show his atrocious conduct?

§ Mr. Speaker
That is not a point of order. I hope that we shall not persist with these rather dubious points of order.

§ Mr. Hughes
On a further point of order. I wish to draw your attention, Mr. Speaker, to the fact that the hon. Member who has objected to all these Bills is the hon. Member for Exeter (Mr. Dudley Williams).

§ Mr. Dudley Williams (Exeter)
On a point of order. I have objected to only four Bills today. It is quite untrue to say that I have objected to every one of them.

§ Mr. Speaker
In any event, it is not a point of order. I have expressed the hope that we shall not persist in raising matters which are alleged to be points of order but which are not.
