HC Deb 27 July 1911 vol 28 cc1807-8
Mr. NEWMAN

asked the Prime Minister whether, with a view to facilitate friendly pairing among Members who may be desirous, of a short holiday in the month of September, he will be able to indicate early next month the order of precedence that will be given by Government to those measures of secondary importance, namely, Trades Union (No. 2) Bill, Shops Bill, Copyright Bill, Coal Mines Bill, and Finance Bill of 1911, which it is intended are to become law during the course of the present Session?

The PRIME MINISTER

I hope shortly to be able to make a statement as to the business of the Session.

Mr. NEWMAN

May I ask what "shortly" means? Does it mean this month, next month, or September?

The PRIME MINISTER

It means shortly.
