ELECTION OF SPEAKER
Mr. Speaker: I have to report to the House that, in the House of Peers, Her Majesty, by Her Royal Commissioners, has been pleased to approve of the choice made of myself for the Office of Speaker, and that I have, in your name and on your behalf, made claim by humble Petition to Her Majesty to all your ancient and undoubted rights and privileges—particularly to the freedom of speech in debate, freedom from arrest, freedom of access to Her Majesty whenever occasion may require, and that the most favourable construction may be placed on all your proceedings. All these Her Majesty, by Her Commissioners, has been pleased to confirm in as ample a manner as they have ever been granted or confirmed by herself or by any of Her Royal Predecessors.
My first duty to the House is to repeat my very respectful acknowledgements and my grateful thanks for the great honour you have conferred upon me in placing me in the Chair.

MEMBERS SWORN
Mr. Speaker: I must now call upon the Members of the House, according to the usual custom, to take the Oath of Allegiance at the Table of the House, first doing so myself.
Thereupon Mr. SPEAKER first alone, standing upon the upper step of the Chair, took and subscribed the Oath.
Mr. Speaker: It has proved convenient, to save confusion and to save hon. Members having to wait about in the Chamber, for the Chair to announce the order in which it proposes to call right hon. and hon. Members to take the Oath.
I propose to call first the Government Front Bench; then the Opposition Front Bench; then all Privy Councillors and former Ministers not included in those
16
two groups, wherever they may be seated. Thereafter, I go bench by bench—first the second bench below the Gangway on my right, and then the similar bench on my left, then the back bench below the Gangway on my right; then the similar bench on my left.
A diagram of how I propose to proceed has just been placed on the notice board in the Whips' offices and in the "No" Lobby. The seats are there given numbers, and the numbers will be on the annunciators so that hon. Members may not have to sit about for an unnecessarily long time. I know that I can count upon the honour of Members to observe the order which I have announced.
