§ MR. RANDLES (Cumberland, Cockermouth)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he will consider the desirability of making arrangements for questions to be asked at the conclusion of public business or at eleven o'clock instead of before public business.
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (MR. A. J. BALFOUR,) Manchester E.I think the suggestion of my hon. 608 friend is an exceedingly ingenious one, and if, or perhaps I ought to say when, the subject of questions comes to be considered by the House in a practical shape this suggestion should have attention.
§ MR. WILLIAM REDMONDMay I suggest that it might be desirable to hold a special sitting of the House for questions, say, at half-past nine in the morning.
