I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he is in a position to state when the Indian Budget will be taken.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

It will not be possible to take it next week, as all the days are allocated, but I hope to take it the week after.

GENERAL RUSSELL

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury when it is proposed to take the Military Manœuvres Bill.

I am afraid I cannot give the hon. Member the information he asks for.

MR. CHANNING (Northamptonshire, E.)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury when the Vote for the Colonial Office will be taken, and whether it can be taken next Friday.

I have already allocated next Friday to Irish.Estimates, and I am not prepared to make any statement as to subsequent days.

Why not the following Friday?
