§ (Sir George Trevelyan, Mr. Campbell-Bannerman, Dr. Cameron, Mr. Baird.)
§ CONSIDERATION.
§ Bill, as amended, considered.
§ SIR GEORGE TREVELYAN (Glasgow, Bridgeton)said, he hoped the House would devote a few minutes to finishing off the Bill. He believed he had met all objections by agreeing to confine it to burghs, and one or two Amendments would be necessary for that purpose. The first of these was in Clause 3.
§ MR. F. S. POWELL (Wigan)said, there was one Amendment the right hon. Gentleman had omitted to assent to, which would come in on page 1, line 11, after the word "amendment," the introduction of the word "Scotland." The Bill referred to Scotland only, and it was desirable that this intention should be clearly set out.
§ Amendment proposed, in page 1, line 11, after the word" amendment." to insert the word "Scotland."—(Mr. F. S. Powell.)
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Amendment proposed, in page 1, line 17, after the word "repealed," to insert the words, "so far as relates to factories and workshops situate within burghs."—(Sir George Trevelyan.)
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Objection being taken, Further Proceedings stood adjourned.
§ Further Proceedings deferred till Tuesday next.
