HC Deb 29 July 1890 vol 347 cc1180-1
MR. LENG

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in view of the fact that 21 Bills appeared yesterday in the Government Orders of the Day, besides the Orders of Supply and a Committee of Ways and Means, he will consult the convenience of the House by placing on the Orders such a number of Bills as there is reasonable expectation may be dealt with during the sitting of the House?

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

I am afraid it would not be practicable, nor for the convenience of the House, that Orders should be postponed to a late day at this period of the Session, and no other course is open, according to practice, but to place them on the Paper, in order that they may be disposed of if they are reached.
