George Halsey Perley (Minister Without Portfolio)
Conservative (1867-1942)
Sir GEORGE PERLEY:
Occasionally
there might be a discrepancy, but I should not think it would mean a difference of more than one vote. Even that is hardly likely, because I have noticed that for the last three or four divisions the tallies of our whips have been exactly right. If there should be a discrepancy I think the understanding should be that the record of the Clerk of the House should govern when the vote is printed in the votes and proceedings.
