Order for Second Reading read.
Hon. Members
Object.
Mr. Giles Radice
(Chester-le-Street)
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. Is it in order that a Bill which is supported by 250 hon. Members, including my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State for the Environment, should be blocked in this way?
Mr. Deputy Speaker
That is not a point of order. The practice of the House under Standing Orders has been rigidly observed.
Second Reading deferred till Friday next.
