Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

I beg to move, "That the Chairman do report Progress, and ask leave to sit again."

There is only one minute and a half in which to deal with the new Clause giving power to make grants out of the unemployment fund towards the cost of approved courses of instruction, and I am sure it will be more convenient if we start this fresh subject on another day.

Question put, and agreed to.

Committee report Progress; to sit again upon Monday next, 5th December.

The remaining Government Orders were read, and postponed.

Whereupon Mr. SPEAKER adjourned the House, without Question put, pursuant to Standing Order No. 3.

Adjourned at One Minute after Four o'Clock until Monday next, 5th December.
