HC Deb 10 October 1912 vol 42 c517
51. Mr. CROFT

asked the Prime Minister whether it is his intention to introduce a Bill for the reform of the House of Lords during the present Session; and, if so, whether he can state the date of the introduction of such a Bill?

The PRIME MINISTER

The answer is in the negative.

Mr. CROFT

May I ask whether the Prime Minister considers that it is consistent with his pledge of honour, the fulfilment of which brooked no delay, that important measures should be smuggled through Parliament until this pledged reform is carried?
