I know that my hon. Friend is too modest to point this out, but there was another occasion when the Committee of Selection seemed to take a positive pleasure in debarring my hon. Friend and the then hon. Member for Coventry, South-West, Audrey Wise, from the Finance Bill Committee. There were many Labour Back Benchers who were very keen to see them on that Committee in view of the very reasonable improvements which they made to a previous Labour Finance Bill.
