HC Deb 26 July 1898 vol 62 c1337
MR. LLOYD-GEORGE (Carnarvon)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury when the Lords' Amendments to the Benefices Bill are to be considered?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

These Amendments will not be considered this week, but I cannot make a definite statement as to when they will be taken.

MR. LLOYD-GEORGE

Will notice be given of the day set apart for their consideration?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

I am unwilling to give too many pledges about notice, because if the progress of business permits particular Bills to be brought on it is inconvenient not to take advantage of the opportunity. I will, however, do my best to meet the wishes of the honourable Member.
