HC Deb 16 November 1966 vol 736 cc440-1

The following Question stood upon the Order Paper:

47. Mr. ARTHUR LEWIS

To ask the Attorney General whether he will publish in HANSARD the dates on which Members of the House were appointed to recorderships, and the salaries they receive; which Members still hold such positions; and how long after being elected to the House these Members were appointed to these positions.

Mr. Speaker

Mr. Arthur Lewis.

Hon. Members

Where is he?

Mr. John Wells

On a point of Order, Mr. Speaker, I am not a lawyer, but is it in order for an hon. Member day after day to place Questions for Oral Answers on the Order Paper and yet not be here to ask them—Questions which today include an attack, or an oblique attack, on some hon. Members?

Mr. Speaker

What has happened is in order. I wish hon. Gentlemen would raise such points of order at the end of Question Time so as not to interrupt Question Time.
