§ Lord BALCARRESI beg to ask the Prime Minister if any business will be taken to-morrow evening after the Government of Ireland Bill?
§ The PRIME MINISTERIf the proceedings on the Criminal Law Amendment Bill are not concluded to-night, it is proposed to continue them to-morrow night.
§ Sir FREDERICK BANBURYMay I ask the Prime Minister whether it is understood that the arrangement made between the Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury and the Noble Lord the Member for the Chorley Division (Lord Balcarres) will be adhered to, namely, that if the Criminal Law Amendment Bill is to be taken in instalments after eleven o'clock, it is not intended to keep the House sitting more than one hour at a time? That is the arrangement that was made.
§ Sir F. BANBURYMy hon. Friend says "Oh!" If these arrangements are not going to be kept some of us on this side of the House will have to take measures to protect ourselves.
§ The PRIME MINISTERIt is not intended to go on after midnight.
