§
Motion made, and Question put,
That the Proceedings on the Parliament (No. 2) Bill may be entered upon and proceeded with at this day's Sitting at any hour, though opposed.—[Mr. Elystan Morgan.]
§ The House proceeded to a Division—
§ Sir Edward Boyle(seated and covered) (Birmingham, Handsworth)On a point of order. I have never before raised a point or order in these circumstances, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I did not
§ hear anybody shout "Aye" when the Question was put and I defy any hon. Member to state categorically that "Aye" was shouted at that point.
§ Mr. Deputy Speaker (Mr. Sydney Irving)I was under the impression that "Aye" was called; but, having proceeded, I must carry on with the Division. There will be another opportunity to test the cries before long.
§ The House having divided: Ayes 161, Noes 76.
