I have received notice from Senator McHugh that on the motion for the adjournment of the House to-night he proposes to raise the question on the following matter:—

To request the Government, in view of the serious unemployment crisis, to initiate immediately large-scale emergency relief schemes.

I am accepting that notice and the matter will be taken from 9.30 to 10 p.m., or earlier, if the business for the day concludes.
