HC Deb 12 April 1899 vol 69 c954
THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR, Manchester, E.)

I beg to move that the House do now adjourn, and in making that Motion I beg to give notice that to-morrow I shall move the suspension to the Twelve o'clock Rule. It is essential that the assent of the House should be given to-some of the Resolutions to be proposed in Committee of Ways and Means. I do not anticipate a long sitting, and this Motion will only be brought forward in order to prevent the possibility of an accident.

MR. BROADHURST (Leicester)

Perhaps the right honourable Gentleman will say what will be the nature of the Resolution?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

I am afraid I cannot anticipate the Budget statement.
