HC Deb 18 February 1876 vol 227 cc481-2
COLONEL EGERTON LEIGH

asked the Secretary of State for the Home De- partment, Whether, if there is time, the Government will bring in a Bill, similar to that of last Session, for the protection of women, &c. from Aggravated Assaults?

MR. ASSHETON CROSS,

in reply, said, he had been requested to postpone the further inquiries which he had to make until after the Spring Assizes, when no doubt he would receive the replies of the learned Judges.
