HC Deb 05 June 1896 vol 41 c515
MR. CHARLES HENRY WILSON (Hull, W.)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury, whether Wednesday 17th June will be taken by the Government; and, whether he will give facilities for the Committee stage of the Sale of Intoxicating Liquors on Sunday Bill?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

Wednesday, the 17th, will be taken for Government business. At all events, it would not fall to the hon. Gentleman for the Second Reading discussion of the Bill. Other Bills would have priority if the Government gave up the day to private Members.

MR. C. H. WILSON

Will facilities be given for the Committee stage?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

Well, Sir, if all the Government Bills are satisfactorily and easily got through before August 12 I shall be very happy to consider that Question. [Laughter.]
