Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Listening Post, Vol. 2: A Canadian Review of Current Events; November, 1924
The relations of the two Houses of the Imperial Parlia ment are now governed by the Parliament Act of 1911, which was passed in order to settle the dispute arising out of the action of the House of Lords when it rejected Mr. Lloyd George's Budget in 1909. In the case of money bills the House of Commons is made practically omnipotent, the-new rule providing that a money bill may be presented directly to the King for His Majesty's assent, if itis not passed without amendment by the House of Lords within one month after it has left the Commons. The Act provides a, definition of a money bill too long to be quoted here, and the Speaker of the House of Commons is made the sole judge of whether any particular measure is a money bill or not.
