HL Deb 11 May 1891 vol 353 cc430-1
THE EARL OF KIMBERLEY

May I ask the noble Marquess opposite if he can inform us when he proposes the House should adjourn for the Whitsuntide Vacation, and for how long?

THE PRIME MINISTER AND SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS (The Marquess of SALISBURY)

That is a matter which generally interests nobody less than Her Majesty's Ministers; but to-morrow would, I imagine, be in accordance with precedent, and unless there is a great anxiety to return to our labours, I think the following Tuesday fortnight would be a sufficiently early day for our reassembling.

THE EARL OF KIMBERLEY

Then we adjourn to-morrow?

THE MARQUESS OF SALISBURY

Tomorrow.
