HC Deb 06 March 1964 vol 690 cc1795-6

Order for Second Reading read.

Hon. Members

Object.

Second Reading deferred till Friday next.

Mr. Eric Lubbock (Orpington)

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. When the question of objections to Bills at four o'clock on Friday afternoon was raised two or three weeks ago, the Leader of the House said that this matter would be referred to the Select Committee on Procedure which he proposed to set up shortly. Is it in order for hon. Members to continue with this practice when it is about to be considered by this Select Committee?

Mr. Speaker

Yes. It is just as much in order as ever it was. I cannot add anything beyond that. I have said all I can about it.
