[2ND ALLOTTED DAY]

[(Clauses 1 to 4 and Schedule 1 and 2)]

Further considered in Committee, pursuant to the Order [15 December] [Progress, 19 January].

[MR. MICHAEL LORD in the Chair]

4.17 pm
Mr. Richard Ottaway (Croydon, South)

On a point of order, Mr. Lord. Have you received a request from the hon. Member for Croydon, Central (Mr. Davies) to come here to correct the record from yesterday? During debate, it was suggested that the decision to abolish the Greater London council did not form part of the 1983 Conservative manifesto. I have read the 1983 manifesto, and it is perfectly clear that the proposal was included in it, so it would be appropriate for the hon. Gentleman to come to the Chamber to apologise.

The Second Deputy Chairman of Ways and Means (Mr. Michael Lord)

That is not a point of order for me, but a matter for debate. I have received no information of the sort the hon. Gentleman seeks.
