HC Deb 23 July 1915 vol 73 cc1832-3

Considered in Committee

[Mr. MACLEAN in the Chair.]

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be reported, without Amendment, to the House."

Mr. KING

On that question I desire to ask the Patronage Secretary to give us an assurance that the Third Reading will be taken at a reasonable time. I was present last night, and desired to raise a matter with the representative of the Board of Education, who had a staff under the Gallery to assist him to answer the point I wished to put. I dare say there were other Members with other questions in the same position. May we have a clear assurance that the Third Reading of the Bill will be taken at a reasonable time?

Mr. LONG

Yes, Sir, certainly. In the clearest possible manner I say that the Bill will be taken on Monday at a time which will give full opportunity to the hon. Gentleman and his Friends.

Question put, and agreed to.

Bill reported without Amendment; to be read the third time upon Monday next (26th July).
