HC Deb 23 July 1900 vol 86 c984

On the Motion for Adjournment:—

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

It may be for the convenience of the House if I say that after consultation I have come to the conclusion that the most convenient course for the House would be that the Colonial Vote should be taken on Wednesday.

MR. TOMLINSON

When will the Companies Bill be taken?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

The Companies Bill will be the first Order To-morrow.

MR. T. M. HEALY

said he hoped the Irish Intermediate Education Bill would not be taken after twelve o'clock. If it were to be taken To-morrow it ought to be taken at an early hour.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

said that the Companies Bill was the most important Bill that now remained to be discussed, and he could not hold out any hope that they would be able to take the Intermediate Education Bill at an early hour To-morrow.

Adjourned at a quarter after One of the clock.
