HC Deb 20 November 1918 vol 110 cc3435-54
Mr. GULLAND

May I ask the right hon. Gentleman what the course of business will be for to-day and to-morrow?

Mr. BONAR LAW

So far as I can see, there will be no business to-day. The representatives in another place not unnaturally think that they ought to have a little time to consider Bills, but we hope that to-morrow the House of Lords will meet at Twelve, and, if we meet at the usual time, that we shall then be able to consider their Amendments, the Prorogation taking place shortly afterwards.

Mr. LOUGH

I see the right hon. Gentleman has a Motion on the Paper for the House to meet to-morrow at Twelve.

Mr. BONAR LAW

I am not going to move it. If the other place should meet at Twelve, I do not think there will be any advantage in our meeting until the usual time.
