On a point of Order.
On a point of Order.
There cannot be two points of Order at the same time.
On a point of Order. In view of the fact that a number of Members on both sides of the House never had an opportunity of being called into the Committee and never had a chance—
That is not a point of Order.
May I ask whether under the Standing Orders it is not in your discretion, Mr. Deputy-Speaker, if you come to the conclusion that a challenged vote was merely frivolous, to call upon those Members desiring to vote "No" to stand up in their places and be counted?
That is a point of Order. It is certainly within the right of the Chair to exercise that discretion and the Chair will do so when it thinks desirable.
Further to the first point of Order.
I ruled that the hon. Gentleman's point was not a point of Order, and, therefore, there cannot be anything further to it.
Further to the point of Order raised by the hon. Member for Nelson and Colne (Mr. S. Silverman). May I ask whether it is in order for the hon. Member to accuse us of frivolous behaviour when we are in fact protesting against the Guillotine?
That is not a point of Order. Points of Order should not be used as an opportunity for making speeches.
May I ask whether you, Mr. DeputySpeaker, will indicate for our guidance what the position is? While the occupant of the Chair has complete discretion as to the manner in which hon. Members may register their votes, have not many of your predecessors, on many occasions, given opportunities to those who feel strongly on some matter, to register their protest in the Division Lobby? In view of the fact that Members in all parts of the House recognise the right of the Chair, and the desire of the Chair to protect the rights of the minority, may I on this point of Order respectfully ask you to enable us to exercise this customary right.
The Chair has the right, and accepts the responsibility, for deciding the manner in which the vote shall be taken.
rose—
We cannot continue in this way. I have allowed a considerable amount of latitude.
May I ask to: your guidance, Mr. Deputy-Speaker, on whether there is any other way in which we can protest against this brazen dictatorship?
Mr. Speaker has already answered that question several times, and the answer which he gave is the answer which I give now.
With due respect. Mr. Deputy-Speaker, may I point out that you were not present earlier when this point was submitted to Mr. Speaker?
It is not a question of whether I was present or not, when that question was raised. But, as a matter of fact, I was present. I am carrying out the long-established procedure of the House.
rose—
I have already given the hon. and gallant Member an opportunity.
On another point of Order.
