§ On the Motion for the Adjournment of the House,
§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURTasked the Leader of the House what steps he proposed to take with reference to the Debate on the British South Africa Committee, and also what would be done with regard to the Motion that originally stood first relating to Committee of Supply?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYOf course our original plan was to pass the Resolution in regard to Supply and that relating to the South Africa Committee to-night, and there would have been ample time for both these discussions and other business, too, had it not been for the Debate on the Adjournment of the House. That Debate has occupied practically the whole evening, and under these circumstances the Government feel themselves obliged to ask for to-morrow for the continuation of the discussion of both Resolutions. If that is done without objection we shall be able to proceed on Monday with the Education Resolution.
§ SIR WILFRID LAWSONWhich shall we take first?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYWe shall proceed first with the Debate on the South Africa Committee.
§ DR. TANNERWill the right hon. Gentleman go on with Supply to-morrow?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYThere will be some Supplementary Estimates, if we reach them.
§ Adjourned at five minutes after Twelve o'Clock.
