HC Deb 16 July 1901 vol 97 c599
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in view of the fact that only 6½ hours have been devoted this year to Scotch Votes in Committee of Supply, he will state what additional number of hours it is proposed to give to Scotch Votes this session.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I think the hon. Gentleman's statistics are inaccurate. A good deal more time has been spent on the Scottish Estimates.

MR. WEIR

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that on the first day set apart for Scottish Supply the Votes did not come on till 9 p.m.?

* MR. SPEAKER

Order, order!

MR. WEIR

But the right hon. Gentleman says I am inaccurate.
