HC Deb 17 March 1896 vol 38 c1173
MR. JOHN ELLIS (Nottingham, Rushcliffe)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury, whether, for the convenience of the House, he can state when it is proposed to adjourn for Easter and reassemble afterwards

THE FIRST LOUD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR,) Manchester, E.

The course which the Government will take with regard to the Easter holidays will, no doubt, partly depend upon the progress of business during the next few days, but I should hope to give notice on the Monday before Easter that on Tuesday we should adjourn after a morning sitting until the Thursday week following.
