HC Deb 16 December 1968 vol 775 cc874-5
Mr. Emrys Hughes

On a point of order. May I, with your permission, Mr. Speaker, direct attention to a mistake in the OFFICIAL REPORT of Thursday 12th December.

I was discussing expenditure on the investiture of the Prince of Wales. I am reported as saying: There is £137 for temporary buildings to be put up and pulled down shortly after the ceremony is over … "—[OFFICIAL REPORT, 12th December 1968; Vol. 775, c. 732.] I wish to correct this mistake. I have every confidence in the OFFICIAL REPORT, and I blame my own Scottish-Welsh accent. The sum of £137 should be £137,000.

Mr. Speaker

I am sure that the whole House will share the hon. Member's anxiety that his views on the investiture should be correctly and accurately recorded. The correction will be made.
