§ Mr. SpeakerBefore I call on the Minister to move the first Motion on Defence, it has occurred to me that I should have to confine the debate on the Army Motion and that on the Royal Air Force Motion within very strict, narrow limits. I wonder whether it would suit the convenience of the House—I am asking for its views—if we take the first two Motions formally, or briefly indeed, so that we can get on to the general defence debate.
§ Mr. SpeakerSo be it.

Resolved,
That the Army Act, 1955 (Continuation) Order 1970, a draft of which was laid before this House on 27th October, be approved.—[Lord Balniel.]
