HC Deb 05 March 1891 vol 351 c266
MR. F. S. STEVENSON (Suffolk, Eye)

May I ask whether there is any intention on the part of the Government to attempt to proceed to-night with the Electors' Registration (Acceleration) Bill.

*MR. W. H. SMITH

Only with the consent of the House.

MR. H. GARDNER

Is it intended to proceed with the Bill before Easter?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

It cannot take precedence of Supply or other urgent Public Business. It is for hon. Members themselves to say whether it should be taken after 12 o'clock.

MR. J. MORLEY

What is to be the business next week?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

Supply.

MR. J. MORLEY

What Supply?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

I am not able to say positively. We shall go on with the Supplementary Estimates until they are concluded.
