HC Deb 03 July 1972 vol 840 c32
Mr. Pavitt

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. I seek your guidance arising out of Questions Nos. 30 and 31. It is the practice of the House that an hon. Member who tables two starred Questions has one answered in priority and the second later. However, today I had the good fortune of having two starred Questions in a row—Nos. 30 and 31. I ask that you look at this, Mr. Speaker. I perhaps had an unfair advantage over some of my colleagues in being able to get two Questions in a row. Perhaps some rule should be applied to Questions starred at No. 30.

Mr. Speaker

The hon. Gentleman is showing his usual fairness in this matter. I will consider the submission that he has made to me.
