A matter of procedure and the fact that one of the members is “hard of hearing” was the ex- planation Premicr Matheson gave yesterday morning of an incident which took place in the House Wednesday evening.

The Premier said he was mak- ing reference to the occasion be- cause press reports made it ap- pear that he was trying to stop the budget debate “by telling G.E Saville (Liberal 5th Kings) that he could not speak."

HOUSE RECESS

What actually took place was, Dr. L.G. Dewar had completed his speech on the budget debate at 6:00 o’clock, the time set for the House to recess for an even- ing session, if one is to be held. When Dr. Dewar sat down, Mr. Saville, rose to his feet. The Pre-

mier reminded him that it was

staff gathered in the appliance department of the Summerside store to bid him farewell and pre- sent him with a handsome easy chair on behalf of the employees. Mr. Arsenault has been caretaker of the store_for the past three years and prior to that time was on the delivery trucks.

‘PTen'IEer ExpIdins Procedure In House Recess incident

announced that he would adjourn

the debate.

This of course is not according to parliamentary procedure -- the debate cannot be adjourned when the House goes into recess. The Premier, therefore had to raise his voice in order to make the member hear and said No, No - it's six o’clock, meaning that Mr. Saville could not adjourn the de- bate but would merely continue when the House met after recess.

Mr. Saville said yesterday, he still did not catch what the Pre- mier said and asked, as a matter of clarification, whether he would have the floor when the House met later inthe evening. Mr. Sa- ville said he did not interpret the occasion as an attempt on the part of the Premier to close the debate and noted that the House Leader had “always been lenient with him in allowing him to speak.” He blamed the situation on his inability to hear what was

being said.
