HC Deb 20 March 1866 vol 182 c581
MR. DU CANE

said, he would beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, in reference to the Representation of the People Bill, Whether it is intended that the occupation franchise for County Voters should, in the case of non-resident claimants, be joined with premises of £6 value, as stated in the Bill itself, or of £7 as stated by him in his speech on moving for leave to introduce the measure?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

said, in reply, that the intention of the Government was stated with perfect accuracy in the Bill—that £6 was the sum at which the intended occupation value was to stand.
