§ MR. LONSDALEI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can now state-whether it is his intention to proceed with the Labourers (Ireland) Bill; and, if so, can he fix the date for the Second Reading.
§ MR. ATKINSONYes, sir. My right hon. friend intends to proceed with the Bill. But he cannot name a date for the Second Reading, which is a matter rather for the Prime Minister.
