• Orders of the Day — Expiring Laws Continuance Bill: Schedule. — (Acts Continued Till End of December 1966.) 23 Nov 1965

• Orders of the Day — Expiring Laws Continuance Bill: Schedule. — (Acts Continued Till End of December 1966.) 23 Nov 1965

  I have been listening to the hon. and learned Gentleman very carefully. At the moment he is approaching the edge of the precipice. In the debate which took place in 1961 the ground which the hon. and learned Member is now traversing was denied him by the Chairman, and I shall follow my predecessor's example.

• Orders of the Day — Expiring Laws Continuance Bill: Schedule. — (Acts Continued Till End of December 1966.) 23 Nov 1965
