§ Mr. Spearingasked the Lord President of the Council if he will consider making arrangements for copies of the European Communities Bill and the daily amendment sheet to be available, if necessary on a loan basis, in the Strangers Galleries during sittings of the Committee of the whole House on this Bill.

I will, however, ask 43W the Services Committee to look into the suggestion that some copies of Bills under debate might be made available to visitors on a loan basis.
