LAND TENURE BILL LORD BALFOUR OF BURLEIGHI should like to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture a Question of which I have given him private notice. The noble Earl and the First Lord of Admiralty both promised certain Amendments to the Land Tenure Bill which, more or less, are to apply to Scotland. The noble Earl has put down a large number of Amendments, most of which, though not exclusively, are of a drafting nature. I should like to be told if possible when we may see the other Amendments, and the reason I ask is that the House does not sit to-morrow, and if they are not to be put down until Monday it will be too late to consult our friends in Scotland before the Bill comes on.
§ EARL CARRINGTONAccording to promises I gave to the noble Lord I did my best to get what Amendments we had ready, and the drafting Amendments 1151 will be out to-morrow morning. With reference to the other Amendments, I hope to be able to get them out on Saturday morning. I will do the best I can.
§ House adjourned at half-past Eleven o'clock, to Monday next, a quarter before Eleven o'clock.
