HC Deb 22 June 1899 vol 73 c289
MR. LAMBERT (Devonshire, South Molton)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he can state when the Report stage of the Food and Drugs Bill will be taken.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I am afraid I cannot give a definite reply to this question.

MR. LAMBERT

Will the right hon. Gentleman give us due notice before he takes the Bill?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I think I can; but it is not always very convenient at this period of the session.
