HC Deb 05 May 1881 vol 260 c1824
MR. NEWDEGATE

asked the First Lord of the Treasury, On what day he will invite the House to proceed with the Adjourned Debate on the Parliamentary Oaths; and, after what hour of the day he may select, he will not expect the House to enter upon the above Adjourned Debate?

MR. GLADSTONE

Sir, the Government propose to place this Order of the Day for to-morrow after Supply, when I hope time may be afforded for discussing the introduction of the Bill. In the event of the matter not coming on to-morrow, it will be my duty to ask the House to have a Morning Sitting on Tuesday.

LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL

asked the right hon. Gentleman, after what hour the Bill would not be taken on Friday?

MR. GLADSTONE

Not after half-past 10 o'clock.
