§ Mr. CHAPLINMay I ask the Minister of Munitions what business will be taken to-morrow?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEThe first business for to-morrow will be the Postal and Telegraph Rates (Statutory Limits) Bill; the second will be the Clubs (Temporary Provisions) Bill; and the third the Naval and Military War Pensions Bill. Then, if time permit, we shall take the Defence of the Realm (Evidence) Bill, and the Ulster Canal Bill.
§ Sir G. YOUNGERCan the right hon. Gentleman say whether the Committee stage of the Finance Bill, if not finished to-night, will also be taken to-morrow?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGENext Tuesday.
§ Mr. HOGGEDoes not my right hon. Friend know that the Naval and Military War Pensions Bill is an important Bill, affecting the pensions and allowances of a great number of people, and that it cannot possibly be got through after two other Bills? Is it not a much more important Bill than the Clubs Bill, which might easily wait?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEI understood that the Naval and Military War Pensions Bill was non-contentious.
§ Mr. BOOTHCan my right hon. Friend say anything to the House with regard to the progress which we hope the Prime Minister is making towards speedy recovery, so that we may know when to put down questions to him?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEThe House will, I am sure, be delighted to hear that the Prime Minister is making most excellent progress, and that he expects to be in his place on Tuesday. If questions are put down for that day, there is every expectation that he will be here to answer them.
