HC Deb 10 May 1887 vol 314 c1470
MR. SEXTON (Belfast, W.)

said, he saw by the Paper that this Bill was blocked by both the hon. Member for North Antrim (Sir Charles Lewis) and the hon. Member for Wigton (Sir Herbert Maxwell), two supporters of the Government; and he wished to know did the Government intend to take any action in reference thereto?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)

said, the Chief Secretary for Ireland, who was responsible for the government of Ireland, was the only Minister who could answer the question; and he would see what the views of the right hon. Gentleman were on the subject.
