§ MR. JACKSONmoved that the Select Committee be composed of the following 1368 19 Members:—Mr. Cavendish Bentinck, Mr. Brocklehurst, Mr. Maurice Brooks, Mr. Bruce, Mr. Campbell-Bannerman, Mr. Freshfield, Mr. Gibson, Mr. Goldney, Mr. Staveley Hill, Mr. Laing, Mr. Leeman, Mr. Sampson Lloyd, Mr. Majendie, Mr. Morley, Mr. Pemberton, Mr. Salt, Sir Edward Watkin, Mr. Watkin Williams, and Mr. Jackson.
MR. BECKETT-DENISONobjected to the Committee as nominated; more than half of them were members of the Bar, while many others were manufacturers; in fact, there were only about four independent Members nominated. He thought it would have been better if the choice of Members to serve on the Committee had been left to the Committee of Selection.
§ MR. JACKSONsaid, he had had great difficulty in nominating the Committee, and had done his best to make it generally acceptable.
§ Motion agreed to.
