GREATER LONDON COUNCIL (GENERAL POWERS) BILL (By Order) (Hansard, 19 June 1969)

§ Mr. Speaker
May I try to advise the House? I have not selected the Amendment to the Motion for consideration in the name of the hon. Member for Erith and Crayford (Mr. Wellbeloved), who wants the Bill to be considered upon this day six months.
I have studied all the other Amendments on the Order Paper. It seems to me that they are all linked with the question of walkways, and I suggest that we might discuss with the first one to be called, in Clause 2, page 2, leave out line 28, the remaining five as follows: In page 6, leave out Part III (Walkways).
In Clause 15, page 15, line 18, leave out subsection (4).
In Clause 30, page 30, leave out lines 17 to 23.
In page 41, leave out Schedule 1.
In the Preamble, leave out paragraphs (2) and (3).
I shall call the hon. Member for Gloucestershire, South (Mr. Corfield) to move the first one, and then we shall have a debate on all the issues raised by the hon. Gentleman and his hon. and learned Friend the Member for Buckinghamshire, South (Mr. Ronald Bell), and by the narrower Amendment on the same topic in the name of the hon. Member for Erith and Crayford. I hope that that is satisfactory to the House.

§ Mr. James Wellbeloved (Erith and Crayford)
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. Would it be possible to call a Division on my Amendment in Clause 15, page 15, line 18?

§ Mr. Speaker
I think that the Chairman of Ways and Means would consent to a Division on that Amendment.

§ The Chairman of Ways and Means (Mr. Sydney Irving)
Yes, Sir.
