Mr. MacDONALDWill the right hon. Gentleman say what business the Government propose to take next week?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINThe House will understand that the Prime Minister Has been fully occupied with other business, and I hope, therefore, that will be some 646 excuse for the poverty of my answer in regard to business, until I have had an opportunity of consulting him. The business for next week will be:
§ Monday: Supply, Committee—Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries Vote.
§ Tuesday: Supply, Report—Scottish Estimates.
§ The business for the remainder of the week I hope to be able to announce later.
§ On Monday and Tuesday at Ten o'clock the Committee and Report stages respectively of all the outstanding Votes in Supply will be put from the Chair. After the conclusion of the business of SUPPLY We shall consider other Orders, including:
- Honours (Prevention of Abuses) Bill;
- National Library (Scotland) Bill;
- Lords Amendments to the Greenwich Hospital (Disused Burial Ground) Bill;
- Teachers (Superannuation) Bill, and Therapeutic Substances Bill [Lords];
§
Ordered,
That the proceedings on the Unemployment Insurance Bill and on the Telegraph (Money) Bill have precedence this day of the Business of Supply, and be exempted, at this day's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[Mr. Austen Chamberlain.]
