§ Sir G. STRICKLANDasked the Prime Minister whether he is aware that an adjustment of travelling allowances to Members of Parliament that would authorise the hire of motors to go home for Members living out of the four-mile limit between the hours when omnibuses stop running and the hours when they begin to ply would greatly diminish the probability of all-night sittings; and whether steps will be taken to provide such allowances where Members certify that such allowances are needed?
§ Mr. A. CHAMBERLAINNo, Sir, his Majesty's Government cannot adopt this suggestion.
