HL Deb 23 February 1869 vol 194 cc199-200
THE EARL OF KIMBERLEY

said, their Lordships might perhaps be pleased to learn that a Bill which was to have been introduced by the Secretary of State for the Home Department into the other House of Parliament had been withdrawn from that House, in order that their Lordships might have some occupation at the beginning of the Session. He now begged to give Notice that he would on Friday next call the attention of the House to the necessity of further measures for the better repression of Crime, and that he should then take the opportunity of explaining the provisions of the Bill to be introduced on the subject.
