HC Deb 15 March 1894 vol 22 c349
MR. GIBSON BOWLES

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when the Vote on Account will be taken?

SIR W. HARCOURT

The Vote on Account will, I think, be taken most conveniently on Wednesday, the 21st instant. My great object is to free hon. Members on both sides of the House as early as I can from controversial business, so that they may go away. Therefore, what I propose is that we should take the Vote on Account with the Report of Supply on the 21st, and if that business is concluded on that day there will be nothing to prevent Members from going away on the Thursday before Good Friday.
