HC Deb 21 June 1886 vol 307 cc62-3
THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Sir WILLIAM HARCOURT) (Derby)

Sir, as there is no Business for the House to transact to-morrow, I will propose—"That the House, at its rising, do adjourn till Thursday."

SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH (Bristol, W.)

Can the right hon. Gentleman tell us what Business will be taken on Thursday, and what will be the probable date of the Prorogation?

SIR ROBERT FOWLER (London)

Does the House meet on Thursday for Business, or only to be prorogued?

SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT

It will meet on Thursday to receive Business coming from the Lords. No other Business will be dealt with on that day. It is understood that the Prorogation will take place on Friday, and the Dissolution on Saturday.

Motion agreed to.

Resolved, That this House will, at the rising of the House this day, adjourn till Thursday next.—(Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer.)
