§
Ordered,
That, at this day's sitting, the Motion relating to Further and Higher Education Bill [Lords] (Allocation of Time) may be proceeded with, though opposed, until any hour.—[Mr. Boswell.]
§ Mr. Max Madden (Bradford, West)On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. I am sorry to delay you and the House but today 15,000 unarmed Kashmiris sought to cross the border from Azad Kashmir into Indian-occupied Kashmir. They were turned back by Pakistani authorities and one person has been killed. The organisers are planning to resume their march tomorrow and, through you, Mr. Speaker, I ask the Government to pass on a message to the Governments of India and Pakistan, urging that maximum restraint is shown tomorrow when these unarmed Kashmiris again demonstrate their desire for self-determination, freedom and the unity of Kashmir.
§ Mr. SpeakerThat point of order has nothing to do with the next debate, but I am sure that what the hon. Gentleman has said will have been heard by those on the Government Front Bench.
