HC Deb 18 December 1912 vol 45 c1497
52. Mr. ARNOLD WARD

asked the Prime Minister whether, having regard to the importance, in the interests of all parties, of the dates of the Divisions on the Woman Suffrage Amendments to the Franchise and Registration Bill being fixed as long in advance as possible, he will state, the precise date on which the Committee stage of the Bill will be taken?

The PRIME MINISTER

I cannot at present fix an exact date, but I will endeavour to give the House as long notice as possible.

Mr. KING

Shall we have the assistance of a time-table in discussing the Franchise and Registration Bill, and, if so, can a statement be made?

The PRIME MINISTER

I think it is very likely there will be a time-table.
