HC Deb 02 July 1913 vol 54 c1869
48. Sir WILFRID LAWSON

asked the Prime Minister whether, in the public interest and in order that the general want of knowledge of hon. Members may not become too apparent, he will consider the desirability of a curtailment of the considerable amount of time at present devoted to questions in this House?

The PRIME MINISTER

I should be very unwilling to curtail the time devoted to questioning Ministers unless it is the universal desire of the House.
