QUESTIONS TO MINISTERS (Hansard, 10 June 1971)

HC Deb 10 June 1971 vol 818 cc1234-5 1235

§ Sir D. Renton
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker.

§ Mr. Speaker
That is not a point of order. I was aware of the fact that only four Questions had been answered.

§ Mr. Onslow
Further to that point of order——

§ Mr. Speaker
It was not a point of order. Prime Minister, statement.
