§ CAPTAIN SINCLAIR (Forfar)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he can now state on what dates he proposes to take further Scottish Estimates; and whether the Scottish Estimates or other Scottish Votes will be taken on or before Friday 2nd July?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYI do not think the present state of business is such that I can give an absolute pledge as to the allocation of the days of Supply; but I hope Scotch Supply will be taken soon after Whitsuntide.
§ SIR W. HARCOURT (Monmouthshire, W.)Can the right hon. Gentleman the First Lord of the Treasury state what will be the business on Friday?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYIt is rather difficult to state what the business on Friday will be, because it 1638 will partly depend on the progress we make with the Bill under discussion tonight. I should hope that arrangements might be made at all events possibly for getting away after the morning sitting. But I must leave that question open for the moment.
