Mr. H. WILLIAMS

Can the right hon. Gentleman indicate the nature of the business on Tuesday?

The PRIME MINISTER

It deals with the Exchequer grants to Local Government officers.

Mr. MAXTON

How long do the Government anticipate that the Austrian Loan Guarantee Bill, Third Reading, will take? There has been considerable controversy on previous stages of the Bill, and do the Government expect to get all the Supplementary Estimates if the Austrian Loan Guarantee Bill lasts some time?

The PRIME MINISTER

I do not anticipate that the Austrian Loan Guarantee Bill will take very long. According to my information all that can be said, and a little more, has been said.

Ordered, That the Proceedings on the Motion relating to Unemployment have precedence this day of the Business of Supply, and that the Proceedings on the Austrian Loan Guarantee Bill be exempted, at this day's Sitting, from the provisions of the Standing Order (Sittings of the House)."—The Prime Minister.]
