HC Deb 21 January 1806 vol 6 cc21-2
Mr. Sheridan

rose to give a notice respecting a motion for the repeal of the Additional Force bill. That bill had been tried, and was found to fail completely in producing the effects expected from it by its admirers. He had a very considerable number with him when he before moved for its repeal, though certainly he had not a majority at that time. Now, however, he hoped that many who disagreed with him then, would, on a subsequent motion for its repeal, cordially vote with him. He was proceeding to make some farther observations, when

The Speaker

observed, that he must remind the hon. gent. that at present he must confine himself to the notice.

Mr. Sheridan

replied, that he was only about to say a very few words, but he should only now state, that on an early day he would give notice of a motion for the repeal of the bill.

Lord Castlereagh

said, that some alterations were intended to be made in it which might meet the most serious objections that could be brought against it.

Mr. Sheridan

replied that no alterations could possibly render it tit to be continued in force any longer.
