NEW STANDING ORDER
The Prime Minister and Lord Privy Seal (The Marquess of Salisbury)
Moved, That the Order made on the 17th of February, 1896, respecting
Parliamentary Papers, viz.-"That if, during the existence of a Parlia-
ment, Papers are commanded to be presented to this House by Her
Majesty at any time the delivery of such Papers to the Clerk of the
Parliaments shall be deemed to be for all purposes the presentation of
them to this House" be made a Standing Order of the House, and
that the Standing Orders be reprinted. (No. 54.)-(The Marquess of
Salisbury.)
On Question, Motion agreed to.
NATIONAL DEFENCE.
The Earl of Wemyss
Moved to resolve that, looking to the possibility of our being at some future
time at war with one or more European Powers, it would not be wise
to trust to the Navy alone for security against invasion; and the more
so as the general power and effectiveness of the Navy, the world over,
would be pro tanto thus lessened by the necessity of retaining in our
home waters a sufficient Naval force for the defence of the United
Kingdom. (The Earl of Wemyss.)
The Question being stated, the Previous Question was put, whether the said
Question shall be now put.
On Question, resolved in the negative. (Contents, 6; not-contents, 53.) EVENING SCHOOLS - EXPENDITURE OF TECHNICAL EDUCATION COMMITTEES,
