TRANSPORT BILL
NOT MANY AMENDMENTS COMMITTEE READY TO REPORT [Thou Ouk Parliamentary Report**.] WELLINGTON, October 31. Quite by accident a highly interested House was informed to-day by Mi Clinkard (chairman of the Select Coni mittee on -.he Transport Law Amendment Bill) that practically no amend ments have been made in the measure. There had been a special arrangement of the Order Paper to secure reports on several Bills, and Mr Clinkard was under the impression that he could present bis committee’s report. When he rose to do so tliere were demands from all over the House to know what amendments had been made, and his reply has been quoted. However, when tho Acting-leader of the House (Mr Forbes) discovered what was transpiring, he intervened to stop further proceedings in connection with this report, suggesting that it could be taken next day. “This time six months,” suggested Mr Fraser (Wellington Central).
