Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Am I to understand that the hon. Lady was talking about the Government at large and not an individual?
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. The hon. Member for Rotherham (Mr. MacShane) has already made his speech. He will kindly let the Minister make his.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Time is up.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Time is up.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Time is up.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. The hon. Gentleman knows full well that it is in order. The hon. Lady has the Floor.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. I thought that the hon. Member's intervention was leading to a point, but it is a mini-speech.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. I would prefer to see the Minister's face rather than his back.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Time is up.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Time is up. Mr. Rupert Allason.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. The hon. Gentleman's time is up.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Before I call the next hon. Member, I remind the House that Madam Speaker has placed a limit of 10 minutes on speeches between 7 pm and 9 pm.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: The hon. Gentleman's question is whether we are to vote separately on each of the orders. Is that right?
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Yes.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: The Question is, motion No. 2. I think the Ayes have it.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: draw the House's attention to the fact that the debate will conclude at 6.33 pm. I am sure that hon. Members want to hear the Minister answer their queries, so I ask the hon. Member for North Antrim (Rev. Ian Paisley) to bear that in mind.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: So far, the speech of the Hon. Member for Beaconsfield (Mr. Smith) is quite in order.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Time is up, I am afraid.
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. Has the right hon. Gentleman informed the hon. Member for Newport, East (Mr. Hughes) that he wishes to speak?
Mr Geoffrey Lofthouse: Order. If the hon. Member for Newport, East has no objections, the right hon. Member for Northavon may continue.
