HC Deb 21 July 1890 vol 347 c361
SIR G. CAMPBELL (&c.) Kirkcaldy,

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in case Her Majesty's Government find themselves unable to deal in the present Session with the question raised in connection with the first part of the Indian Councils Bill, they will consider the expediency of trying, at least, to carry through the non-contentious later portions of the Bill?

* MR. W. H. SMITH

I still entertain the hope that the House will deal with the Bill as a whole in the course of the present Session.

* MR. BRADLAUGH

Will the right hon. Gentleman say to when he intends to postpone it from to-day, as I notice the Bill appears on the Orders of the Day?

* MR. W. H. SMITH

If the hon. Gentleman will be so good as to allow the Orders of the Day to be called on we shall then be able to answer the question.
