§ MR. JOHN ELLIS (Nottinghamshire, Rushcliffe)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he can now say definitely when the Colonial Office Vote will be taken.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI am afraid I am not in a position to give the hon. Gentleman a definite answer. I rather think, from rumours which have reached me, that he suspects me of some sinister intention to postpone this Vote unduly.
§ MR. JOHN ELLISI have no such idea.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI can assure him I am anxious to consult the convenience of hon. Members.
§ MR. WINSTON CHURCHILL (Oldham)Take it on Thursday, then.
