HC Deb 28 August 1914 vol 66 cc283-4
Mr. BONAR LAW

Can the right hon. Gentleman make any statement as to the business to-day and on Monday?

The PRIME MINISTER

We shall proceed with the three Emergency Bills, and on Monday next take whatever stages are left of those measures. On Monday I shall move the Adjournment of the House for a short time, perhaps ten clays, and then make a full statement as to business.

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

May I ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in regard to the Courts (Emergency Powers) Bill, if he has had time to discuss it with its critics?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

We have had a discussion at the Treasury with Gentlemen who have suggestions to offer, and I understand that the conference, which is proceeding, is very friendly, and I think we will arrive at a complete agreement.

Sir JOSEPH WALTON

When will the discussion of the Moratorium be reached?

The PRIME MINISTER

On the Motion for the Adjournment.
