Part of the debate – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 20 Mai 1947.
I do not quite follow the hon. Member's question. The Minister always has the right to answer any Question, whether it is reached or not, if he thinks it is of public importance. I have protested against this habit being pursued too frequently, but there is the right. Question 89 was not taken because the Chancellor of the Exchequer wished to answer Question 56, but because we have spent so much time on the previous Questions.
