HC Deb 13 August 1901 vol 99 cc593-4
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL (Donegal, S.)

had on the Paper the following question, but was not in his place to put it:—"To ask the right hon. Member for North Armagh whether he has asked or intends to ask the Government for facilities for the moving of a resolution of which he has given notice with reference to the terms of the proclamation issued by Lord Kitchener on 7th August."

MR. WILLIAM JOHNSTON (Belfast, S.)

May I ask you, Mr. Speaker, if it is in order to put such a question to a private Member of the House?

MR. SPEAKER

Yes, as it appears to have reference to a resolution which the right hon. Member has set down on the Paper subsequently.

COLONEL SAUNDERSON (Armagh, N.)

asked the Leader of the House whether he could give him facilities for moving the resolution referred to.

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR, Manchester, E.)

The subject can be raised on the Second Reading of the Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill, which I hope to put down for Thursday.
