POINTS OF ORDER<br />
Reported from Committee <strong>of</strong> the Whole, 49 (2), 184 .<br />
Reported from Committee <strong>of</strong> Supply, 226.<br />
Rum .,ms OlP SPEAKER :-<br />
That motion, 11 That John INIT.cFarlane, Esquire, be Chairman <strong>of</strong> Committees <strong>of</strong> the NArliole House I<br />
for the present Session," was in order, though notice had not been given, the practice <strong>of</strong> the<br />
House, being followed, 24 . 1<br />
That motion in favour <strong>of</strong> State training its own civil engincers through the Railway Department<br />
was improperly before the -House, as Sessional Order in*reference to precedence ' <strong>of</strong> business<br />
took effect immediately it was passed, 29 .,<br />
That although the motion for adjournment to discuss tile proposal <strong>of</strong> the Minister for W6rks,<br />
in reference to dealing with the unemployed, -.v" not definitely set out in the motion, the<br />
mover, in his speech, had clearly indicated whaft the proposal was, and lie would allow the<br />
motion to be amended to that extent, and the debate to continue, 44.<br />
That so Ion,, as the Order <strong>of</strong> Leave disclosed - the general scope <strong>of</strong> a Bill, that was all that was<br />
necessary, although if a Bill proposed definitelyi to alter an Act <strong>of</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong>, the Ord er <strong>of</strong><br />
Leave, as a matter <strong>of</strong> convenience, should state so ; the Coroner's Court Bill did not propose<br />
to alter any existing Act <strong>of</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong>, and wa~', therefore, in order, 44 .<br />
That when the Deputy Speaker occupied the Chair <strong>of</strong> the House, his rulings had the same force<br />
and effect -,is those <strong>of</strong> 'vir. Speaker, and motion to*dissent from such ruling was in order, 60 .<br />
That motion for adjournment under the 49th Standing Order was sufficiently definite, 65.<br />
That the practice for the past ten years had been not to allow motions for adjournment oil<br />
subjects which could be discussed on the Estimates ; lie did not intend to reverse that<br />
practice, though under it hardships occasionally occurred . He . would give the matter<br />
consideration to see if in the future some decision could be arrived at to overcome tile<br />
present state <strong>of</strong> affairs and enable theadjournnient to be moved under similar circumstances,<br />
to draw, attention to matters <strong>of</strong> very urgent importance, 72 .<br />
That in discussing the clauses <strong>of</strong> a Bill, the general principles <strong>of</strong> an Act proposed to be<br />
repealed coul (I not be-referred to in detail, 185.'<br />
That the aniendni ' ent was out <strong>of</strong> order whi6li'llrolidsed to substitute words <strong>of</strong> the same purport<br />
as the words which it was proposed to ](!,,Lvb out, 214 . That the Estimates would be<br />
considered in Committee <strong>of</strong> Supply, and the itein, Harbour Master, ~C700, could then be''<br />
discussed, 219 . That motion for suspension <strong>of</strong> Standing Orders as a matter <strong>of</strong> urgency,<br />
with reference, to the adjournment <strong>of</strong> the House, was in effect evading Mr . Speaker's ruling<br />
" That item could be discussed in Committee <strong>of</strong> Supply," 219 .' The Chairman having put<br />
the Question to the Committee that the full aniount <strong>of</strong> Estimates under the con trol <strong>of</strong><br />
tile COIODicd Secretary be passed, Mr. John Hurley moved a reduction <strong>of</strong> the amount<br />
by X288, when the Chairman ruled that Mr . Nielse'n was not in Order in moving any<br />
amendment except for a larger amount, nor .in insisting before Mr . Hurley's ihotion was<br />
made, that lie (Mr. Nielsen) had a right to have the items <strong>of</strong> the Estimates put seriation .<br />
Mr. Speaker ' said the procedure in Committee '<strong>of</strong> Supply, was clearly laid down in Standing<br />
Order'No 336 . "flat .1 . Standing Order No . 336 could be set aside by concurrence, and<br />
lip, had to decide -%vhother concurrence had beei-i granted, and as five Departments had been<br />
dealt with by the Committee without . objectiou, lie must conclude that concurrence had,'<br />
been granted and lie ruled in that direction, 2'56 .<br />
RULINCS OF DEPUTv'.SPEAKE'11. :-<br />
That it was'the duty <strong>of</strong> tile Chairman to have putian amendment in such a way as would have,<br />
tested the feeling <strong>of</strong> the Committee, but so as not to preclude another Honorable TNIC111ber<br />
from moving his amendment . This rule is clearly laid clown in --iNfay,"10th edition)<br />
page 457, 49 .<br />
That the amendment to leave out certain words ii~ clause 4 <strong>of</strong> the Public Works Committee<br />
Bill would have the effect <strong>of</strong> increasing the charge upon the revenue, and was correctl<br />
ruled out <strong>of</strong> order by the Temporary Chairman, 50 .<br />
