HC Deb 22 April 1988 vol 131 c1168

Order for Second Reading read.

Hon. Members

Object.

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Second Reading what day?

Mr. Alan Meale (Mansfield)

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker.

Mr. Deputy Speaker

I hope it is a different point of order.

Mr. Meale

This Bill has again been stopped. It has become a party political matter. That is quite wrong—

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Order. We have given this matter a very good run today. I do not think that the hon. Gentleman should persist.

Second Reading deferred till Friday 20 May.
