HC Deb 27 April 1922 vol 153 cc722-3
24. Lieut.-Colonel MURRAY

asked the Prime Minister whether, having regard to the growing congestion of business in this House, he will, simultaneously with the introduction of proposals to reform the House of Lords, frame and introduce a Bill to devolve upon Scotland, Wales and England the legislative control of their own national affairs?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

No, Sir. I cannot undertake to act on the hon. and gallant Member's proposal.

Lieut.-Colonel MURRAY

May we take it that the right hon. Gentleman is in favour of some such proposal as this?
