HC Deb 19 July 1934 vol 292 cc1278-81
Mr. ATTLEE

May I ask the Lord President of the Council what will be the business on the days previous to the Summer Adjournment.

Mr. BALDWIN

Monday: Cattle Industry (Emergency Provisions) Bill, Committee stage; Navy, Army and Air Expenditure, 1932, Committee.

Tuesday: Cattle Industry (Emergency Provisions) Bill, Third Reading; Whaling Industry (Regulation) Bill [Lords], Committee and remaining stages; Navy, Army and Air Expenditure, 1932, Report.

Wednesday and Thursday: 19th and 20th Allotted Supply Days. At 10 o'clock on these days the Committee and Report stages, respectively, of all outstanding Supply Votes will be put from the Chair.

Friday: Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill, Second Reading.

Monday, 30th July: Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill, remaining stages.

The subjects to be discussed in Supply and on the Appropriation Bill will be announced later.

If all the outstanding business has been disposed of, including any Lords Amendments to Bills which have already passed this House, and Motions to approve Import Duties Orders, the Government hope that it will be possible to take the Motion for the Summer Adjournment on Tuesday, 31st July. I may add that the House would meet at 11 a.m. on that day.

The date of re-assembly in the autumn, and the business to be considered during the first week, will be announced later.

The Motion for the Summer Adjournment will contain the usual provisions to empower Mr. Speaker, on representations being made by the Government, to call the House together at an earlier date if such a course appears to be necessary in the public interest.

Mr. TINKER

May I ask when the Supplementary Estimate which has just been issued is going to be taken?

Mr. BALDWIN

With regard to the Supplementary Estimates, they share the fate of Supplementary Estimates at this particular season of the year. If any of them are put down for discussion on a Supply Day, they can be discussed, but, whether they are or are not, they will be included in the Votes put from the Chair on the last two Supply nights.

Mr. TINKER

I think that the question of the Victorian migrants is worthy of the attention of the House.

Sir W. BRASS

Can my right hon. Friend say when the Lords Amendments to the Traffic Bill are likely to be taken?

Mr. BALDWIN

I cannot say that at present.

Mr. ATTLEE

May I ask the Lord President what business he proposes to take to-night, in the event of the Motion on the Paper being carried?

Mr. BALDWIN

The first five 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)."—[Mr. Baldwin.]

The House divided: Ayes, 276; Noes, 45.
