§ MR. MELLORasked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether, considering the great interest taken in all parts of the kingdom with regard to the Bill now before the House for the repeal of the 23rd clause of the Poor Law Amendment Act, he would give facilities for obtaining a day for its consideration?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERSir, I am perfectly aware of the interest which that Bill excites, and I should be glad to see it brought forward and discussed. But it is not in my power to offer my hon. Friend any Government time for the discussion of it. Perhaps, by looking at the Notice Paper, he may find a day — perhaps Friday, the 31st May.
