§ 51. Mr. KINGasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the disappointment in the delayed progress with the Education Bill, he will reconsider the sending of the Bill to a Grand Committee?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWI have so far received no indication that the course suggested would be generally desired by the House.
§ Mr. KINGDoes the right hon. Gentleman not realise that Irish legislation must now postpone, for several weeks at any rate, the taking of the Education Bill, whereas if it was sent to a Committee upstairs it could be got on with at once?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWThe hon. Gentleman will see from my answer that I do not preclude the possibility of such a course.
§ Sir J. D. REESHas the Government considered the propriety of confining the business of the Session to the question of the provision of men and money for the War?
