The few remaining days of the session will be as crowded as any that have gone before. The Trade Unions Bill has to be placed on the Statute Book, and the Finance Bill must become an Act before M.Ps take their holidays. The fact that the House of Lords has amended the Un-Trade Unions Bill in the committee

stage will involve some delay, as a Straits report stage will be necessary in the

Rumour has it that the Government will not support the Lord's amend- ments when they come to be dis- cussed in the Commons, but this will, not save much time, as they will have to be discussed.
