HC Deb 20 June 1892 vol 5 cc1561-2
MR. PICTON (Leicester)

I do not see the First Lord of the Treasury in his place, but perhaps the Chancellor of the Exchequer can say is it the intention to push forward the Archdeaconry of Cornwall Bill?

MR. GOSCHEN

I am not in a position to answer the question; but my right hon. Friend will be in his place in a few minutes, and in the course of the afternoon will answer the question.

MR. CONWAY (Leitrim, N.)

Perhaps the Financial Secretary can say under what circumstances, by whose authority, and upon what information have the bands in Limerick been prohibited from playing?

SIR JOHN GORST

That is a question quite out of my Department. Perhaps the hon. Member will give notice of it?

MR. CONWAY

Under the circumstances, and as the Attorney General for Ireland is within the precincts of the House, perhaps the right hon. Gentleman will so far assist me to the information as to send for General for Ireland?

SIR JOHN LUBBOCK (London University)

May I ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the Government, seeing that the Shop Hours Bill has no opposition, will agree to "star" that Bill so that it may be included in the list of Government Bills for tomorrow?

MR. GOSCHEN

I will report the matter to my right hon. Friend the First Lord. I now beg to move— That, for the remainder of this Session, Mr. Speaker do adjourn the House each day at the conclusion of the Government business without (Question put.

Motion made, and Question proposed, That, for the remainder of the Session, Mr. Speaker do adjourn the House each day at the conclusion of the Government business without (Question put."—(Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer.)

SIR JOHN LUBBOCK

May I ask if the Shop Hours Bill, to which I just now referred, will be starred and included in the Government Bills?

MR. O'KELLY (Roscommon, N.)

I hope we shall have some guarantee that Ministers will be present to answer questions Members may desire to ask.

MR. CONWAY

Seeing the Attorney General for Ireland in his place. I beg to repeat my question: Under what circumstances and by whose authority have bands in Limerick been prohibited from playing in public?

MR. MADDEN

I think the hon. Member will recognise that the question is one I cannot possibly answer without notice.

MR. SPEAKER

Order, order! I must remind the House of the Question before it.

Question put, and agreed to.
