§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Report be considered upon Tuesday next."—(Mr. Sexton.)
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. MATTHEWS) (Birmingham, E.)thought it would be physically impossible to prepare the Report and evidence by Monday, or that they could be in the hands of Members before Thursday.
§ MR. T. M. HEALY (Longford, N.)suggested that the matter should be taken on Tuesday, as it was a matter of privilege which should be dealt with as speedily as possible.
§ MR. HUNTER (Aberdeen, N.)said, that Tuesday was sacred to Scotch Business.
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)said, that he could not now make any alteration in the arrangements he had made as to the course of business, but he would make a statement on Monday.
§ Motion, by leave, withdrawn.
§ Report to lie upon the Table, and to be printed. [No. 411.]
