asked under which Vote Lord Northcliffe's mission to the United States of America comes; and when will there be an opportunity to discusss his actions?

The general expenses of Lord Northcliffe's mission are defrayed from the Votes of Credit, and can be discussed on those Votes.

Seeing that we shall not have another Vote of Credit for some time -will the right hon. Gentleman afford us an opportunity of raising this most important matter on the Motion for Adjournment?

It can be raised, without any assistance from me, on the Motion for Adjournment; but there was a Vote of Credit not long ago, when it could have been raised.

Are the expenses of the mission to continue if Lord Northcliffe does not return to America?

They will continue. Lord Northcliffe is doing very useful work in connection with the mission here.
