HC Deb 02 December 1912 vol 44 c1909
Mr. BONAR LAW

May I inquire as to the business on Friday, and, also, whether the Prime Minister is now in a position to state the arrangements for Christmas?

The PRIME MINISTER

On Friday we will proceed with the Committee stage of the Established Church (Wales) Bill. With regard to the Christmas Vacation, as at present advised, the Government will propose that the House do adjourn from 20th December to 30th December.

Mr. WATT

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware how Scotsmen usually spend the first week in the New Year? Does he think it is fair to bring us back here then?

The PRIME MINISTER

I have spent it with them before now. [HON. MEMBERS: "How?"]
