Note 343:1 — Chapter XVIII
Reading edition
The change consisted in leaving the Committee of Ways and Means out of the exceptions, in S.O. 51, to the general rule that the House goes into committee without question put.
The Committee on Indian Accounts.
Debate on the motion to go into committee on the East Indian Accounts is still allowed, in order to provide an opportunity for general debate on the questions that may arise on these accounts. (S.O. 51, cf. Ilbert, "Manual," § 64.) An amendment can also be moved (Ibid., § 117), but in practice this has no serious effect.
