HC Deb 18 March 1887 vol 312 cc733-4
SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT (Derby)

Is the right hon. Gentleman the First Lord of the Treasury able to tell us what the course of Business will be next week?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)

I am afraid I cannot go beyond Monday; but, perhaps, that will be sufficient for the right hon. Gentleman. On Monday we propose, in accordance with the engagement which I made at 2 o'clock this morning with the right hon. Gentleman the Member for Central Bradford (Mr. Shaw Lefevre), to put down the Navy Estimates and the Vote for Clothing, so that there may be a discussion upon them, and afterwards to take the Vote on Account for Civil Services.

DR. CAMERON (Glasgow, College)

inquired, whether the Government proposed to take Wednesday and next week for Public Business? He asked be-cause there were some Scotch Bills.

MR. W. H. SMITH

I am afraid there is no chance that Members will get Wednesday for their ordinary Business.
