HC Deb 11 February 1972 vol 830 c1825

Order for Second Reading read.

Hon. Members

Object.

Second Reading deferred till Friday, 25th February.

Mr. Gerald Kaufman (Manchester, Ardwick)

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. In view of what has just happened to the Bill in the name of my hon. Friend the Member for Kingston-upon-Hull, North (Mr. McNamara), would you direct that it be recorded in the OFFICIAL REPORT that it was a Government Whip who prevented the Second Reading of this highly desired Bill?

Mr. Deputy Speaker (Mr. E. L. Mallalieu)

That is not a question for me.
