§ MR. JACOBY (Derbyshire, Mid)asked the First Lord of the Treasury, If, in consideration of the late period of the Session, and the unsatisfactory progress made in the negotiations upstairs, he can now name a day for proceeding with the Coal Mines, &c. Regulation Bill?
§ MR. J. E. ELLIS (Nottingham, Rushcliffe)also asked, Whether the right 1628 hon. Gentleman can now definitely fix a day for the further consideration of the Bill?
§ THE FIRST LORD (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)After further progress has been made in Supply and the Committee on the Irish Land Law Bill has been finished, I hope to be in a position to fix a day for proceeding with the Coal Mines Regulation, &c. Bill, and to go on until it is concluded. It will not be taken next week.
