§ MR. A. J. BALFOUR (City of London)Perhaps the Prime Minister can give 98 some forecast of the business for this week.
§ MR. ASQUITHWe propose to take the Prevention of Crime Bill Report and Third Reading to-day, concluding, I hope, about dinner time. After, we shall ask the House to take the Second Reading of the East India Loans Bill. To-morrow we shall put down the Order for the Second Reading of the Irish Land Bill after a Motion for the suspension of the eleven o'clock rule. On Wednesday, as the first business, I propose to move the suspension of the eleven o'clock rule for the remainder of the session, and then I will make a general statement. On Thursday we propose to take the Report of the Coal Mines (Eight Hours) Bill, and, I hope, the Third Reading on Friday.
