HL Deb 12 December 1973 vol 347 cc1269-70WA
LORD JACQUES

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have any proposals for an inquiry into the procedure for Private Bills by a Joint Committee of both Houses.

LORD WINDLESHAM

Proposals for an inquiry into this matter are still under consideration. If such an inquiry is set up, the Government's view is that it might be appropriate that it should be undertaken by a Joint Committee of both Houses.
