HC Deb 11 June 1903 vol 123 c651
MR. GIBSON BOWLES (Lynn Regis)

Will the right hon. Gentleman undertake to give due notice when the Sugar Convention Bill is to be brought in?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I cannot fix a day for the Bill, but I think the request of the hon. Member for notice is a reasonable one, and I will endeavour to give due notice before it is taken.

DR. FARQUHARSON (Aberdeenshire, W.)

Is it proposed to take the Employment of Children Bill to-morrow?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

No, Sir. I stated last night, probably after the hon. Member had left the House, that the Finance Bill would be taken on Friday, and I would not take the Employment of Children Bill if the discussion on the Budget Bill should terminate before the natural close of the sitting.
