§ LORD R. CECILinquired what steps the Government proposed to take to secure the attendance of a Law Officer at the proceedings on the Housing Bill, in view of what was stated the other day and in view of the fact that no Law Officer had attended that day.
§ MR. ASQUITHI think I must have notice of that Question. What the means at the disposal of the Government are for securing the attendance of a Law Officer is one of the most difficult problems of administration with which I am acquainted.
§ MR. LUPTONMay I ask the right hon. Gentleman not to let the Law Officers practise in the Courts, but to let them serve Parliament, which requires their assistance?
§ MR. ASQUITHI can assure my hon. friend that we require their assistance in the Courts quite as much as we do here.
