HC Deb 27 February 1883 vol 276 cc1017-8
MR. INDERWICK (for Mr. DANIEL GRANT)

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to introduce a Bill this Session dealing with the question of Extraordinary Tithe; if not, will they afford facilities for discussion if a Bill be introduced by a private Member?

SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT,

in reply, said, he had intended, in answering the Question of the hon. Member for Marylebone, to refer to the Bill on the subject which he understood had been introduced by the hon. and learned Member for Rye (Mr. Inderwick), and he was therefore surprised at that hon. and learned Member putting the Question.

MR. INDERWICK

said, it was true he had introduced a Bill on the subject. He asked whether the Government would give facilities for the discussion of the Bill?

SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT

Facilities are a commodity in which Her Majesty's Government do not deal.
