§ MR. A. J. BALFOUR (City of London)asked what business was to be taken 1430 on Wednesday and Thursday. He also asked whether the Government could name a day for a discussion on the Anglo-Russian Agreement.
SIR H. CAMPBELL-ANNERMANI should like, in the first place, to express, on behalf of the whole House, the satisfaction with which we greet the right hon. Gentleman's return. As to the Anglo-Russian Agreement, probably a truncated day, such as we sometimes have at disposal at this period of the session, would suffice. I will endeavour to discover what would be the most convenient day. As to the business of the week, to-morrow the Supplementary Estimates will be taken again. On Wednesday I propose to move the Resolution allocating the time for the consideration of the two Scottish Bills. On Thursday that debate will be continued, if Wednesday does not suffice, as I should hope it would, and then, if time permits, the report of the Supplementary Estimates will be taken.
