HC Deb 29 June 1896 vol 42 cc270-1
SIR E. ASHMEAD-BARTLETT

said he desired to ask a Question arising out of an answer given by the Secretary for the Colonies in reference to Mr. Cecil Rhodes. He wished to know whether the House was to understand that the resignation of Mr. Rhodes was accepted by the British South Africa Company in consequence of advice given by the right hon. Gentleman to the Chartered Board?

MR. J. CHAMBERLAIN

I do not think that Question arises out of the answer I have given, and I prefer to have notice.

SIR E. ASHMEAD-BARTLETT

I will give notice.

MR. A. LAFONE: (Southwark, Bermondsey)

said he wished to put a Question arising out of an answer——

*MR. SPEAKER

Order, order! The practice of making inquiries at the end of Questions on matters arising out of answers previously given is irregular. If Questions are not put at the time they should be put on the Paper.
