THE CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEES (THE EARL OF ONSLOW)My Lords, in moving that the various Standing Committees be appointed for this Session, perhaps your Lordships will allow me to 52 draw attention to the fact that I am proposing certain changes. Many of your Lordships who have served on these Committees in the past have been unable to attend regularly, and I have tried, therefore, to find noble Lords who will be able to attend the House and serve on the Committees. I hope your Lordships will approve. The first Committee to be appointed is the Committee of Selection, and I beg to move the Motion standing in my name.
§ Moved, That a Committee be appointed to select and propose to the House the names of the five Lords to form a Select Committee for the consideration of each opposed Private Bill; and that the Lords following, with the Lord Chancellor and the Chairman of Committees, be named of the Committee:
- M. Salisbury,
- M. Bath,
- M. Crewe,
- E. Stanhope,
- E. Lucan,
- E. Vane (M. Londonderry),
- V. Hutchinson (E. Donoughmore),
- V. Mersey,
- V. Hailsham,
- V. Samuel,
- V. Maugham,
- L. Cecil (V. Cranborne),
