HC Deb 04 March 1969 vol 779 c219
Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

On a point of order. I wonder whether you can give us some guidance, Mr. Speaker, on a situation which arose during Question Time this afternoon. It will be within your recollection that we lost perhaps five minutes of the Chancellor's Question Time. In view of the fact that the Chancellor answers Questions, effectively, only once every six weeks, might it not be possible for this situation to be put right by the Chancellor staying at the head of the list again for next week, so that he can have a fresh bash then?

Mr. Speaker

I have no power to change the rota of Ministers for Question Time. It is an ingenious suggestion which the hon. Member makes, but I cannot take note of it.
