HC Deb 21 July 1856 vol 143 cc1171-2
SIR JAMES GRAHAM

Perhaps it will be for the convenience of the House if the noble Lord at the head of the Government will state when he proposes to move the second reading of the Bill respecting the future incomes of the Bishops of London and Durham.

VISCOUNT PALMERSTON

I shall propose that the Bill be read a second time to-morrow.

SIR JAMES GRAHAM

At the morning or evening sitting? [Viscount PALMERSTON: In the evening.] Will the noble Lord have any objection to lay upon the table the correspondence which has taken place between the Bishops of London and Durham and Her Majesty's Government with respect to the terms upon which those right rev. Prelates have stipulated that their resignations shall be given in?

VISCOUNT PALMERSTON

That correspondence was laid before the House of Lords, and there will be no objection to its production.
