HC Deb 06 April 1973 vol 854 c873

Not amended(in the Standing Committee), considered.

Motion made, That the Bill be now read the Third time.

Mr. Anthony Fell (Yarmouth)

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I gave you advance warning that I am in a difficulty here. As I understand it, it is impossible to discuss this Bill. I am in difficulty because the only Scot present is the hon. Member for Rutherglen (Mr. Gregor Mackenzie)—

Mr. Ronald King Murray (Edinburgh, Leith)

Not so.

Mr. Deputy Speaker (Sir Robert Grant-Ferris)

I am apprised of the hon. Gentleman's point of order. No point of order can arise on this. I am expressly enjoined by the Standing Orders that unless there is a blocking motion tabled, even if the time be before four o'clock I must put the motion without debate.

Question put forthwith pursuant to Standing Order No. 56 (Third Reading), and agreed to.

Bill accordingly read the Third time and passed.
