§ SIR HENRY FOWLER (Wolverhampton, E.)Will the First Lord state what will be the business next Monday?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI gave notice before we separated for the holidays of the Bills which I hope to take on Monday, the 30th of this month. The first Order will be the Uganda Railway. I informed the House that a fresh Bill is necessary in order to supply the funds requisite for completing this railway. The Bill will have to be brought in in Committee of Ways and Means, and it will be open to the House to discuss the principle of the measure, either upon the first stage or upon the Second Reading of the Bill. So far as the Government are concerned, it is immaterial what course the House adopts, but it would be, I think, to a certain extent a convenience if some decision could be arrived at on the point, with a view to the general arrangement of business. I throw out that observation to prevent disappointment. I will state on Monday next what business is to be taken on Thursday, but I shall not be able to answer that question until I know what is to take place on Monday itself. The notice which I gave was to this effect —first Order, Uganda Railway Bill; second, Burials Bill; third, Sea Fisheries Bill; fourth, Money Lending Bill; fifth, Lunacy Bill.
