Part of the debate – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 5 Rhagfyr 1973.
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. I recognise your difficulty, but between now and 14th December there is to be a series of meetings, all of which in themselves merit statements to the House. I have every sympathy with both Front Benches, but I hope that you, as the protector of backbench Members will impress upon the usual channels that the situation that has arisen today should not be allowed to recur.
