HC Deb 29 April 1988 vol 132 c698

Order for Second Reading read.

Hon. Members

Object.

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Objection taken. Second Reading what day'?

Mr. Hugh Dykes (Harrow, East)

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I think that there may have been a mistake. I thought that I heard the Government Whip objecting. I think that he was doing so erroneously, in the belief that the Bill would slow down planning procedures. That is not the intention of the Bill.

Mr. Deputy Speaker

Order. I cannot allow the hon. Gentleman to discuss his Bill now. I distinctly heard objections coming from a number of quarters. Second Reading what day?

Mr. Dykes

Friday 17 June.

Second Reading deferred till Friday 17 June.
