[272:2] _Cf._ Hans. (1888) 3 Ser. CCCXXIII., 403 _et seq._, 474 _et seq._; (1894) 4 Ser. XXII., 1116 _et seq._, 1487 _et seq._; XXIII., 648 _et seq._, 991 _et seq._, 1589 _et seq._; (1895) XXXIII., 822 _et seq._; XXXIV., 170 _et seq._ [272:3] This objection was partially met by a provision in regard to the additional members. Hans. 4 Ser. XXIII., 1613; XXXIV., 1881. [273:1] _Cf._ Hans. 4 Ser. CLXXII., pp. lxxix-lxxx. [273:2] A committee to which a bill relating exclusively to Wales and Monmouthshire is referred must comprise all the members from that part of the kingdom. In order to provide chairmen enough, the maximum of the chairmen's panel was raised from six to eight. [274:1] May, 437, note 1. [274:2] S.O. 11. [274:3] S.O. 31. This is also true when a bill is brought from the Lords. [274:4] S.O. 31. [274:5] _Cf._ Hans. 4 Ser. CLVII., 744. [275:1] Until 1888 the form of the motion was "that that question be now put," and the mover voted in the negative; but after the closure was introduced with a motion in these same words, the previous question was changed, and put in the form "that that question not be now put." May, 269. If under either form the House decided in favour of putting the question, the vote upon the second reading was taken without further debate. May, _Ibid._ But as the previous question was itself subject to a discussion which might cover the principles of the bill, it did not have the effect of cutting off debate. (_Cf._ Report of Com. on Business of the House. Com. Papers, 1871, IX., 1, Qs. 54-55.) [275:2] May, 446. [275:3] By S.O. 34, committees of the whole are instructed to make such amendments, relevant to the bill, as they think fit. The object of a special instruction is merely to empower the committee to make amendments, within the general scope and framework of the bill, which it would not possess under the standing order. Ilbert, "Manual," §§ 175-76. [275:4] S.O. 51. Adopted in 1888. [276:1] S.O. 39. [276:2] S.O. 50. [276:3] _Cf._ S.O. 38-41. Unless a motion is made to recommit, the bill is considered on report, when reached, without question put. S.O. 40. [277:1] Except that the third reading often follows immediately upon the report stage. May, 472. [277:2] May, 487. In the Lords this requires a suspension of the rules. Some kinds of bills are subject to special forms of procedure which it seems hardly necessary to mention. A bill for the restitution of honours begins in the Lords, and in the Commons is referred to a select committee which takes the place of a Committee of the Whole. A bill for a general pardon originates with the Crown, and is read only once in each House. May, 435-36. [277:3] May, 479; Ilbert, "Manual," § 209. [277:4] May, 412-16; Ilbert, § 250 note.
