§ Mr. A. HENDERSONWould the Leader of the House say what business the Government propose to take to- 42 morrow and during the remainder of the present week; also whether it is the intention to go beyond the first item on the Order Paper to-day, and, if so, what other Vote it is proposed to take?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINTo-day we shall take only the Navy Estimates in Committee of Supply, not the Report stage.
As regards the business of the week, I understand there is a desire to have more than one day for the discussion of the Railways Bill. I am prepared to meet that wish, and it will be convenient, I think, that the discussion should go on from day to day. We propose, therefore, to take the Second Reading of the Finance Bill to-morrow, to take the Railways Bill on Thursday, and to conclude the Second Reading on Friday.
