HC Deb 30 March 1917 vol 92 c771W
Sir J. AGG-GARDNER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, in view of the work recently imposed upon banks in connection with the issue of the National War Loan he will consider the suggestion that the Saturday following Good Friday may be included as one of the Bank Holidays at Easter?

Mr. BONAR LAW

Proclamations will be issued in Great Britain and Ireland respectively making Saturday, 7th April, a Bank Holiday, but it is not intended that it should be kept as a general holiday.
