§ MR. BROADHURST (Nottingham, W.)asked the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether, in view of protracted discussion likely to take place upon measures which he has placed before the Employers' Liability Bill, he will consider the advisability of deferring the Report stage of the latter Bill till the autumn part of the Session?
§ MR. J. E. ELLIS (Nottingham, Rushcliffe)said, he was desired by the hon. Member for Morpeth (Mr. Burt) and other Members to say that it would be convenient that the Bill should be postponed.
§ MR. AINSLIE (Lancashire, N., Lonsdale)urged that the Bill should be taken before the adjournment.
§ THE FIRST LORD (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)said, that he desired to consult the convenience of all hon. Members who took an interest in the question, which was a very important one, and a great responsibility would be incurred by those who caused its postponement. But he would consider the matter, and announce the intention of the Government on another day.
