HC Deb 23 September 1909 vol 11 c623
Sir A. ACLAND-HOOD

May I ask the Prime Minister the course of business next week?

The PRIME MINISTER

To go on with the Committee stage of the Finance Bill until it is concluded, and which I hope may be on Thursday. If that is so, on Friday we shall take the Expiring Laws Continuance Bill, some small Bills, and Lords Amendments to the Trade Boards Bill.

Colonel WILLIAMS

Will there be any chance of getting a part of a day for the consideration of the Report of the Public Accounts Committee?

The PRIME MINISTER

I will consider that.

Lord R. CECIL

Do the Government propose to afford the House any opportunity of considering the very remarkable Report of the Committee of Privileges?

The PRIME MINISTER

I think that at this stage of the Session the time of the House might be more profitably occupied with other matters, particularly as there will be a full opportunity when the Sessional Orders are next reviewed, of going into the whole matter.
