HC Deb 01 May 1987 vol 115 c551

Order for Second Reading read.

Hon. Members

Object.

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Second Reading what day?

Mr. Colin Moynihan (Lewisham, East)

With the authority of my hon. Friend the Member for Leicester, East (Mr. Bruinvels), Friday 8 May.

Mr. Corbyn

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, arising on the previous Bill.

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Order. We have passed that.

Mr. Corbyn

The point of order is about today's business. Will you inform the House whether you recollect hearing the hon. Member for Watford (Mr. Garel-Jones) object to the Pensioners' Right to Fuel and Communications Bill, and whether his name will therefore be recorded in Hansard as that of the hon. Member who denied pensioners a warm home throughout the winter?

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Order. No doubt it will be, now that the matter has been raised. However the Chair deprecates this kind of practice, which is contrary to our usual procedures and may eventualy turn out to be counter-productive. I must warn the House about that.
