HC Deb 12 November 1964 vol 701 cc111-2W
Q7. Sir W. Anstruther-Gray

asked the Prime Minister whether he is aware that Scottish Questions will not reach the top of the list until Wednesday 16th December and that thereafter there will be no further opportunity of asking the Secretary of State an Oral Question until 1965; and whether he will put before the House proposals to remedy this.

The Prime Minister

Scottish Questions were top of the list in the last week of the last Session. I sympathise with the desire of the hon. and gallant Member to get some better answers on Scottish Questions as soon as possible. But the only fair solution we have been able to arrive at is to follow on where the old roster ended, with minor changes to take account of the new departments.
