HC Deb 16 July 1883 vol 281 cc1527-8
MR. DALRYMPLE

asked the Prime Minister, Whether, when he spoke about the Tenants' Compensation Bill, he referred also to the measure for Scotland of the same title; and after what hour to-night the Local Government (Scotland) Bill would not be taken?

MR. GLADSTONE

The second Question of the hon. Member is answered by the Rule of the House. We feel it our duty to bring on the Local Government (Scotland) Bill at any time before half-past 12, should the progress in Supply enable us to do so. With regard to the Tenants' Compensation Bills, for the purpose of progress through Committee, the two Bills will be taken and considered as one.
