Resolution reported,
That, for the purposes of any Act of the present Session to continue certain expiring laws, it is expedient to authorise the payment out of moneys provided by Parliament of such expenses as may be occasioned by the continuance of Section 3 of the Emergency Laws (Repeal) Act 1959 and Part I of, and Schedule 1 to, the Commonwealth Immigrants Act 1962 till the end of December, 1965, and of the Rent of Furnished Houses Control (Scotland) Act 1943, the Furnished Houses (Rent Control) Act 1946 and (when in force) Part VII of the Licensing Act 1964 till the end of March, 1966, being expenses which under any Act are to be paid out of such moneys.—[Mr. MacDermot.]
§ Resolution agreed to.
§ Mr. Robert Cooke (Bristol, West)I do not know, Mr. Deputy-Speaker, whether I am in order in raising this matter and if not I shall sit down, but before the House votes the money which is referred to I should say that it is for providing funds to continue certain parts of the Licensing Act.
Would I be in order in asking the Government whether they have any statement to make on the question of the licensing planning areas about which a statement was made last year?
§ Mr. Deputy-Speaker (Dr. Horace King)I am sorry to disappoint the hon. Member, but the Report stage of this particular Motion is almost purely formal. It is not in order to discuss anything except whether or not the Report shall be accepted.
