HC Deb 19 June 1924 vol 174 c2333
Mr. BALDWIN

May I ask the Deputy-Leader of the House what the business will he next week?

Mr. CLYNES

On Monday: Housing (Financial Provisions) Bill, Second Reading.

Tuesday: London Traffic Bill, Report: Administration of Justice Bill [Lords], Report.

Wednesday: Old Age Pensions—Money Resolution in Committee of the Whole House; Pensions Increase Bill, Second Reading.

Thursday: Supply. The Vote will be announced later.

It is intended, on some one night next week, to move the suspension of the Eleven o'Clock Rule, so as to dispose of some of the smaller Orders on the Paper.

Mr. BALDWIN

Does the right hon. Gentleman expect to get the Housing Bill on Monday?

Mr. CLYNES

We do; may I remind the House that two days already have been devoted on the Financial Resolution to discussing the housing scheme of the Government. That scheme has, moreover, been covered, not by one Bill but by two, and a further day will be given for the second Bill, which will be considered later.

Mr. A. M. SAMUEL

Can the right hon. Gentleman give any indication, within a few days, when we can have the Committee stage of the Finance Bill?

Mr. CLYNES

Probably in the week after next.

Captain BENN

Can the right hon. Gentleman provide further time for taking a vote on the food taxes which were proposed yesterday and run away from by the Opposition?

Mr. CLYNES

We must wait until it is asked for!
