HC Deb 26 July 1898 vol 62 cc1295-6

Upon the Order for the Third Reading of the Education Department Provisional Order Confirmation (London) Bill [H.L.],

MR. LOUGH (Islington, W.)

I really am astonished that this should be put down for Third Reading to-day, and I trust that it will be put off till Monday next for consideration.

*MR. SPEAKER

Does the honourable Member object to the Third Reading being taken to-day?

MR. LOUGH

I object.

*MR. SPEAKER

To-morrow.

MR. LOUGH

I very respectfully hope, Sir, that a longer interval of time than that will be given us. There can be no inconvenience in giving us till Monday next.

*MR. SPEAKER

It can be put down for Thursday, as the promoters agree to that day; that is all I can do, unless the honourable Member can come to a private arrangement for a longer interval.

Third Reading deferred till Thursday.
