HC Deb 04 April 1910 vol 16 c37
Mr. FELL

asked if the Budget for the year 1910–11 will be introduced about 15th April, which appears to be about the usual date in previous years?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

No, Sir.

Mr. FELL

Is it the policy of the Government to prolong the financial crisis?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

If I was aware that there was any financial crisis, of which I am not aware, I should unhesitatingly say it was the intention of the Government not to prolong it.
