HC Deb 28 May 1900 vol 83 cc1523-4
SIR H. CAMPBRLL-BANNERMAN (Stirling Burghs)

What business is it proposed to take after the first Order today?

MR. A.J. BALFOUR

I should not propose to go beyond No. 7. I think there are one or two of those which precede it that might be taken.

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

No. 4 (Elementary Education Bill) may not in itself be controversial, but it contains controversial points.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

My right hon. friend in charge of the Bill seems to think there must be some misunderstanding as to its being of a controversial character.

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

I think it would be better to put it off.
