MR. GLADSTONE moved—
That the Orders of the Day be postponed until after the Notice of Motion relating to the Business of the House (Urgency).
§ SIR STAFFORD NORTHCOTEI wish to ask the right hon. Gentleman what Business will be taken, and in what order it will be taken, after this Motion of Urgency has been carried?
MR. GLADSTONEI thought that had been completely understood; but, if it is not so, it is very easily stated. We propose to proceed with the Order for Committee on the Prevention of Crime Bill, and prosecuting that Committee to its close, or any other serious Business.
§ SIR STAFFORD NORTHCOTEWhat will be taken to-morrow?
MR. GLADSTONEThe Prevention of Crime Bill, if it is not finished in Committee to-night. If it is finished, then we propose to proceed with the Arrears of Rent Bill.
§ Question put.
