HC Deb 07 March 1859 vol 152 cc1350-1
MR. T. DUNCOMBE

said, he wished to know if the Government had any objection to go into Committee on the Highways Bill, pro forma, for the purpose of reprint- ing it with the Amendments of which notice had been given.

MR. HARDY

said, he thought that would be a very inconvenient course. The better plan would be to go through the un-opposed clauses, and postpone the new ones. Although the Amendments looked formidable on paper, they were not in reality of great importance.

In reply to a question by SIR GEORGE GREY,

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

said the Government would not go into the Highways Bill after ten o'clock.
