HL Deb 22 October 2001 vol 627 c818
Lord Williams of Mostyn

My Lords, I beg leave not to move the Motion relating to Standing Order 40 standing in my name on the Order Paper. An error has been made. The wrong Motion was printed on tomorrow's Order Paper, as your Lordships will undoubtedly have noticed. If my positive Motion were therefore to have been upheld it would have been compounded by a further error tomorrow. The error having been made, for which of course I take total responsibility, looking only to my right at the Chief Whip, we shall make sure, with great apologies, that the Order Paper tomorrow is in proper order. I shall then move my Motion, which I hope will be carried unanimously. We shall then proceed to the substantive Motion of the noble Lord, Lord Kingsland, which is incorrectly described at present.
