HC Deb 23 February 1965 vol 707 cc233-4
Mr. John Harvey

On a point of order. Mr. Speaker, I have here a copy of the Notices of Motions and Orders of the Day for Tuesday, 23rd February. On page 2735 there is a Motion in the name of the hon. Member for Putney (Mr. Hugh Jenkins) in connection with a Bill—

Mr. Speaker

I wonder whether the hon. Member would be good enough to repeat the page number to which he referred.

Mr. Harvey

It is page 2735.

Mr. Speaker

There is no such page in my copy. Perhaps the hon. Member will explain. I do not want him to go on on a false basis.

Mr. Harvey

I am sorry, Mr. Speaker. The Notices of Motions and Orders of the Day which I obtained from the Vote Office today suggests that at the commencement of Public Business there will be a Motion to bring in a Bill to dissolve the corporation of the City of London; to extinguish the title of Lord Mayor of London and other matters. This Motion has disappeared from the Order Paper for today, and I wonder whether you can guide us on what has happened.

Mr. Speaker

The short answer is that it has either been postponed or withdrawn, but I scarcely think that it is a point of order with which I should deal now.
