§ Mr. RAMSAY MacDONALDMay I ask the Prime Minister how far down the Order Paper he proposes to go to-day?
§ The PRIME MINISTERWe propose to take the first six Votes.
§ Mr. RAMSAY MacDONALDThe first six Votes—will that mean an all-night sitting?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI do not see any necessity for that.
§ Mr. STEPHENMight I ask the Prime Minister whether he can tell the House, in connection will these arrangements, what the Government intend to do in regard to the Estimate of the Ministry of Health that was withdrawn the other day?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am afraid I cannot say when that will come up again.
§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYWhen the right hon. Gentleman says the first six Votes, does he mean the whole of the six Supply Votes on the Order 1933 Paper in the name of the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, or does he mean to include the Public Works Loans Bill?
§ The PRIME MINISTERNo. Had I meant what the hon. and gallant Gentleman refers to, I should have used the word "Orders."
§
Motion made and Question put,
That the Proceedings on Government Business be exempted, at this day's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—[The Prime Minister.]
§ The House divided: Ayes, 277; Noes, 128.
