HC Deb 19 June 1899 vol 72 c1501
SIR CHARLES CAMERON

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether his attention has been called to the fact that the Private Bills relating to telephonic communication introduced at the beginning of the session are still waiting for Second Reading pending proceedings on the Government Telegraphs (Telephonic Communication, &c.) Bill; and whether he can now state when it is proposed to bring on that measure.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

If the Private Legislation Procedure (Scotland) Bill is not finished to-night—and I hope it will be—the Bill the hon. Member refers to will be the second Order to-morrow; it will be the first Order if the Scotch Bill is finished to-night.
