Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 4 April 1974.
The Leader of the House will be aware that in this Parliament so far the Opposition have had half of a Supply Day. Will he give an assurance that we shall be afforded a Supply Day very soon after the House returns from the Easter Recess? Secondly, although I agree that the situation is somewhat difficult for a Leader of the House to announce in advance, will the right hon. Gentleman say when the Adjournment motion will be taken? Since in this new Parliament we have so many new hon. Members, it would be most helpful to the House if he could say when the House can expect to take the Adjournment motion.
