§ Mr. CLYNES(by Private Notice) asked the Prime Minister whether arrangements will be made for the introduction of the promised Unemployment Insurance Bill before the Summer Adjournment, in order that Members may be able to examine it, and, if necessary, consult their constituents during the Recess?
§ The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Baldwin)I am afraid that would be quite impossible. The Bill contains a number of technical details which have yet to be arranged, and I am afraid some little time must elapse before they are settled. I will take steps to see that the Bill gets into Members' hands in ample time before the Second Reading is taken.
§ Mr. ERNEST BROWNMay I ask to what Bill the right hon. Gentleman is referring, because we could not hear a word of the question?
§ Mr. STEPHENThe Prime Minister says that he will see that hon. Members get ample time to examine this Bill before the Second Reading. Does he mean that there is absolutely no chance that we can have it during the Recess?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI cannot say when the Bill will be taken. In the event of the Bill being taken early in the Autumn Session, I will see that it is supplied to hon. Members during the Recess.
