§ MR. W. E. FORSTERsaid, he understood, with reference to the Public Business on the Paper, that if the Peace Preservation Bill was finished that day, the Budget would be taken on Monday next; but, if that were not so, he should like to hear from the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether he would proceed with the Public Works Loan Bill on Monday?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER, in reply, said, that the Notice given by the hon. Member for Hackney (Mr. Fawcett) would make it necessary to consider what should be done with that Bill, and he would undertake not to bring it on for consideration without seeing that ample time should be allowed for the discussion of the important Motion of which Notice was given by the hon. Member for Hackney. In case the Peace Preservation Bill should be finished that day, he would proceed with the Budget on Monday.
