HC Deb 06 May 1925 vol 183 cc952-3
Mr. SNOWDEN

May I ask the Prime Minister if, for the convenience of the House, he will say how far the Government propose to go with business to-day?

The PRIME MINISTER

It is impossible for me to say how far we are likely to go. That depends upon the House itself; but it is not, at all events, our intention to sit late to-night.

Captain BENN

Does that mean that, in spite of the fact that the Eleven o'Clock Rule does not apply to these Resolutions, at 8.15 a Private Member's Motion will terminate the Budget Debate for to-day?

The PRIME MINISTER

Yes, that is the intention.
