HC Deb 30 July 1858 vol 151 cc2304-5
MR. NICOLL

said, he would beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to lay upon the table of either House the long-promised Bill to amend the law relating to bankruptcy and insolvency, so that Members may have an opportunity to consider the same during the recess.

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

I believe, Sir, it is the intention of the Lord Chancellor to introduce such a Bill this Session in the House of Lords, but of course not with the intention of proceeding further with it at present.
