§ Q11. Sir Knox Cunninghamasked the Prime Minister if he will make arrangements to answer Questions in the House at 3 o'clock on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so as to enable hon. Members to receive an oral answer.
§ The Prime MinisterThese are matters for the House as a whole, but I think that the present arrangements are working well.
§ Sir Knox CunninghamDoes the right hon. Gentleman realise that he is a most elusive person and that whether one can get an Oral Answer from him three weeks ahead depends entirely upon the whim of the Government printer? Will he look into this?
§ The Prime MinisterI think that much depends upon whether the time of hon. Members with genuine Questions to put is wasted by some of the supplementary questions which we get occasionally, only occasionally, from the hon. and learned Gentleman.
§ Mr. C. PannellWill my right hon. Friend note this Question and Answer and will he take note that the other side of the House seem to be gluttons for punishment?
