HC Deb 21 March 1872 vol 210 c403
MR. GOSCHEN

said, he must appeal to the hon. Baronet the Member for Portsmouth (Sir James Elphinstone) not to proceed with the Motion of which he had given Notice on this subject, as there would be ample opportunity for discussion on Vote 3 on the Navy Estimates, which would be taken at the beginning of an evening.

SIR JAMES ELPHINSTONE

said, he could not consent to postpone his Motion, believing that that was the proper time to bring it forward.
