§ MR. BIDDELLasked the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether, under the Representation of the People Bill, the present anomaly will be continued, under which a resident in a Parliamentary borough possessing a 40s. freehold in a county has a vote for it, while a resident in a county having a £50 freehold in a Parliamentary borough cannot vote for that borough?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir HENRY JAMES),in reply, said, that the Bill throughout maintained the distinction between the occupation vote for the borough and the property vote for the county.
