§ Report from the Special Orders Committee, That they have examined the Scheme as required by the Standing Orders of the House; that they have considered a Report by the Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries and the Secretary of State for Scotland; that in their opinion the provisions of the Scheme raise important questions of policy and principle, similar to those agreed to by the House when passing the 322 Agricultural Marketing Acts, 1931 and 1933, under which the Scheme is submitted for approval; that the Scheme is founded on precedent, inasmuch as similar Schemes have already been submitted for the approval of Parliament under these Acts, although those Schemes dealt with other agricultural products; that in the opinion of the Committee the Scheme cannot be passed by the House without special attention, but that no further inquiry is necessary before the House proceeds to a decision on the Resolution to approve the said Scheme:
§ Read, and ordered to lie on the Table.
