HC Deb 25 July 1907 vol 179 cc152-3
MR. EVELYN CECIL

I beg to ask the Prime Minister whether he can indicate at what date or period of the session the Transvaal Loan Bill will be introduced.

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

I understand that the Transvaal Loan Bill has been passed by the Legislative Assembly, and we shall, therefore, be free to proceed with the introduction of the Bill at a very early date, but I cannot fix that date at present.

SIR GILBERT PARKER

Will the right hon. Gentleman make the introduction of the Bill dependent on the Transvaal Government not pressing the Bill for the sale of liquor to natives?

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

I have no knowledge of that matter.
