HC Deb 12 March 1903 vol 119 c589
MR. MALCOLM

Can the Prime Minister state when it is likely that the Irish Land Bill will be introduced?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I think I have already indicated to the House that the Bill is ready, and that we are anxious to introduce it at the earliest possible moment. On the other hand, as the House knows, there are obligations thrown upon the House by the law which obliges us to get through a certain amount of important financial work before the end of the financial year. As soon as that financial work is disposed of I propose that the Irish Land Bill shall be the first business.
