§
Resolved,
That this House doth agree with the Select Committee on Parliamentary Questions appointed in the last Session of Parliament in the recommendations contained in Paragraphs 7, 8, 10, 19, 28 and 29 of their Report, in the opinions expressed in Paragraphs 24 and 25 thereof and in the conclusions expressed in Paragraph 36 thereof.—[Mr. Prior.]
§
Ordered,
That Standing Order No. 8 (Questions to Members) be amended in line 51, by inserting, at the end, a new paragraph as follows:
'A Member who, while not desiring an oral answer to his question, desires that the answer to it shall be printed in the Official Report not later than the day for which notice has been given, shall distinguish it with the letter W, and the Minister shall cause the answer to be so printed:
Provided that the minimum notice for such a question shall be the same as that prescribed for questions for oral answer in paragraphs (4) and (5) of this Order '.—[Mr. Prior.]
§ Mr. Deputy Speaker (Miss Harvie Anderson)Do I understand correctly that Motions Nos. 8, 9 and 10 will not be moved? No. 8 is Delegated Legislation; No. 9 is Attendance of Members at Meetings of Select Committees; and No. 10 is Business of the House (Consolidated Fund Bills).
