HC Deb 22 May 1806 vol 7 c336
Mr. Tierney

moved the order of the day for the further consideration of the Election Treating bill, to which bill he understood he was to expect the opposition of a right hon. secretary (Mr. Fox). He did not wish to press the house, now, to a discussion upon the subject, as there was another subject pending, of more urgent importance. But, if it was allowed that the bill should pass the present stage without discussion, those gentlemen who were opposed to the bill might take the debate upon the third reading, and name their own day for that purpose.

Mr. Secretary fox

could see no objection to the course pointed out by the right hon. gentleman; upon which, the amendments were agreed to, and the bill ordered to be engrossed, and read a third time on Monday se'nnight.
