§ 48. Major O'NEILLasked the Prime Minister whether he has been able to arrange that questions to the Chief Secretary for Ireland shall in future be taken first on Thursdays?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWIt has been arranged that on Thursdays, questions addressed to the Chief Secretary for Ireland shall be taken second on the Paper—after those addressed to the Minister of Pensions.
§ Major O'NEILLWill that give a clear opportunity for verbal answers to the questions before the Prime Minister answers his questions?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWI have looked through what happened previously, and judging by that there will be such an opportunity.
§ Lieut.-Colonel Sir S. HOAREAs the question of the Ministry of Health was also discussed at the same time, does the fact that the questions addressed to the Ministry of Health come early on the Paper to-day mean that they will regularly be taken early on Wednesday afternoons?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWThat was the arrangement that was proposed.
