This Day That Age
Members of Parliament do not seem to favour Saturday sittings. The quorum bell had to be rung twice on April 17, once when the Finance Ministry's demands for grants were under discussion and later during the private members' business. On the latter occasion, there were hardly thirty members in a House of 499. Earlier in the day, several members greeted with cries of `No, no' the announcement of the Speaker that the House would sit on Saturdays also. But the Speaker told them that the programme of sittings had been arranged by the Business Advisory Committee, on which all groups in the House were represented, and the decision to sit on Saturdays was unanimous.
