MR. SEXTON

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, What course the Government intends to pursue in regard to the Bill of the hon. Member for Galway (Mr. T. P. O'Connor) in regard to Irish Labourers?

MR. TREVELYAN

, in reply, said, ho was glad to say that ho thought the promise he gave off-hand, without knowing the circumstances, had been kept as well as promises could be expected to be kept. That day the Irish Office has practically agreed with the Treasury as to the Amendments, and had obtained their consent. He hoped to have them in printed form by to-morrow, and that they would be in the hands of Members on Saturday.

MR. SEXTON

said, the hon. Member for Galway would put down the Bill for Monday.
