HC Deb 24 July 1969 vol 787 c2161
Mr. Speaker

I have to inform the House that the Bath University of Technology proposes to do me the honour of conferring on me tomorrow the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws.—[HON. MEMBERS: "Hear, hear."] I therefore ask for the indulgence of the House and leave of absence to enable me to attend the University for that purpose.

The Lord President of the Council and Leader of the House of Commons (Mr. Fred Peart)

Mr. Speaker, I am sure that the whole House will wish to join me in congratulating you on this honour.
