HC Deb 30 April 1919 vol 115 c159

Ordered, That the Proceedings of the Committee of Ways and Means have precedence this day of Notices of Motion and be exempted from the provision of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[Mr. Chamberlain.]

Mr. HOGGE

May I ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will say for the convenience of the House whether the usual course will be followed with regard to the Budget Resolutions, and if certain Resolutions will be left over so that we may begin the discussion to-morrow?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (Mr. Chamberlain)

Yes, I hope the Committee will give me the bulk of the Resolutions to-night in accordance with the ordinary practice, and I will hold over until to-morrow the general Resolution for amendment of the law which will enable the general discussion to be taken to-morrow on any point raised by the Budget.
