HC Deb 19 June 1930 vol 240 cc584-5
Mr. STANLEY BALDWIN

May I ask the Prime Minister what business is to be taken next week?

The PRIME MINISTER

Monday: Finance Bill, Committee.

Tuesday: Land Drainage [Lords] Bill, Second Reading.

Wednesday: Finance Bill, Committee.

Thursday: Supply [14th Allotted Day]; Vote to be announced later.

Friday: Land Drainage, Money Resolution, Committee.

On any day, should time permit, other Orders may be taken.

Mr. E. BROWN

I wish to give notice that I shall call attention to the deduction of Income Tax in respect of local authorities in Scotland receiving unemployment grants on Tuesday night at Eleven o'clock.

Mr. HARRIS

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when the Education Bill will be taken in Committee?

The PRIME MINISTER

Not next week.

Mr. BALDWIN

When will the right hon. Gentleman be in a position to tell us something about the length of the Session and the business which is to be taken before the House rises?

The PRIME MINISTER

Of course, all announcements of that kind depend, at any rate, a little bit, upon how business is getting on. I was hoping that we might have got a little further than we have with our business. At the same time, I hope that some time next week I may be in a position to survey the work which has been accomplished during the week and the work which we shall ask the House to do before we rise preparatory to our summer holidays.

Ordered, That the Proceedings on the Finance Bill have precedence this day of the Business of Supply."—[The Prime Minister.]
