§ 100. Mr. Chapmanasked the Lord President of the Council whether he will move to accept the recommendations of the 1967–68 Select Committee on Procedure relating to the Parliamentary Session; and whether, on the lines of that Report, he will now announce the provisional dates proposed for the present Session.
§ Mr. PeartBecause of the party conference commitments mentioned in the Report, I see no prospect of full acceptance of the Committee's recommendation before the next General Election.
However, for the current Session I announced on 31st October that, subject to progress of business, the House will adjourn for two weeks at Whitsun and for the Summer not later than 26th July 1969.
