HC Deb 03 May 1889 vol 335 cc1089-90
MR. ARTHUR ACLAND (Yorkshire W.R., Rotherham)

asked the First Lord of the Treasury whether he was able at present to name a day for the discussion of the New Code?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

I think it will be to the convenience of the House that this question should be considered in connection with the Education Vote and I hope to take the Education Vote, and the discussion of the New Code together.

MR. ACLAND

Will the discussion be taken as the first business of the day?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

The Education Vote is always taken on a day specially named in order to meet the convenience of Members. I will undertake that ample notice shall be given to Members who take an interest in the question, and that a day shall be fixed on which a full discussion may take place.

*MR. PICTON

The New Code will, I presume, not be enforced until the House has had an opportunity of discussing it?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

Certainly not. That is the understanding.
