HC Deb 01 July 1908 vol 191 c777
MR. ANNAN BRYCE (Inverness Burghs)

I beg to ask the Prime Minister whether he is aware that the question of foreign trawlers is exciting great interest in Scotland; and whether, therefore, he will arrange that, on the further half-day to be allotted to Scottish Estimates, the Fishery Board Vote shall be taken first.

MR. MORTON

I beg at the same time to ask the Prime Minister whether he will arrange to give another day for the consideration of the Scottish Estimates, especially with regard to the trawling question.

MR. BARNES

Shall we have an opportunity of discussing the unemployed question on that Vote?

MR. ASQUITH

In the event of the Navy Votes alluded to in my reply to the last Question being obtained by about eight o'clock, I am prepared to allot the remainder of the sitting to Scottish Estimates and propose to put down the Fishery Board Vote first.

MR. BARNES

Will the right hon. Gentleman move the closure at a given time, or will we be expected to make our own arrangement as to the debate.

MR. ASQUITH

I would rather wait and see how matters develop.
