§ 3.41 p.m.
§ The Minister of State, Scottish Office (Mr. Bruce Millan)On a point of order, Mr. Thomas. Hon. Members will have seen on the Order Paper the phrase:
Remaining Stages may also be taken ".It is not the Government's intention to go beyond the Committee stage today. In view of the urgency of the Bill, we certainly hope that we shall obtain the full Committee stage today, but we do not intend to go beyond that. An earlier intention to do that led to those words appearing. They should no longer appear, and I hope that it is convenient to say so at this stage.
§ The ChairmanThat is the most satisfactory point of order that has been raised since I have been in the Chair.
