§ MR. RITCHIEI wish to ask the Prime Minister whether the Government seriously contemplate proceeding with the London Government Bill?
MR. GLADSTONEIn the circumstances in which we are now, with a debate such as that anticipated on Monday, I cannot give any answer as to the date of proceeding with this Bill or with other matters, however important they may be. The hon. Gentleman will be entitled to put a Question to me on another day.
