§ MR. MACVEAGH (Down, S.)said he hoped the Indian Motion would not be persisted in. It was not on the Paper, and naturally many hon. Members would resent its being smuggled through the House. It was, moreover, a private Members' day; and there was no necessity why Government business should be taken.
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY (Sir A. ACLAND-HOOD, Somersetshire, Wellington)said that a full opportunity for discussing the matter would arise. It was of great importance to India; and it would he an advantage to the House that the present stage should be taken, before the discussion on the Indian Budget.
§ Objection being taken, the Motion was postponed.
