MR. GIBSON BOWLESI beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether Her Majesty's Government propose, this Session, to submit to this House the Resolution relative to the House of Lords, as set forth by the Prime Minister in his speech at Bradford on the 28th October, 1894?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOUR (Manchester, E.)Perhaps it will be for the convenience of the House if the right hon. Gentleman the Leader of the House will state what will be the business for Friday, and will give us in general terms the substance of the Motion he proposes to move on Thursday.
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERThe Motion I propose to move on Thursday will be placed upon the Table to-night, but it will practically be the same Motion as that which I made on May 31st last year. I desire to make an arrangement by which there shall be a regular day each week appropriated for taking Supply, and that will be involved in the proposal which I shall make on Thursday. The particular day thus appropriated, however, may be subject to alteration. But supposing the House agrees with the Motion I shall move on Thursday, the business next Friday will be Supply.
§ MR. TOMLINSONasked when the right hon. Gentleman proposed to take the Army Estimates?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERI am not able to reply to the hon. and learned Gentleman's question at the present moment.
§ In answer to Mr. GIBSON BOWLES,
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERsaid, that there would be an ordinary Sitting of the House next Friday.
