The Minister for Transport Industries asked me in his speech whether I thought it right that there should be a proper form of Select Committee examination—in other words, that the Government, as promoters, should be asked to prove their case. The short answer is that I do. As the right hon. Gentleman does not permit anyone to intervene in his speeches, I thought I would make that clear now, but I do not wish to hold up consideration of the matter.
