HC Deb 24 April 1834 vol 22 cc1372-3
Mr. Robert Grant

said, that the late hour of the night, if there was no other cause, would prevent him from going into any lengthened statement on the subject of the Motion which he was about to submit, and of which he had given notice. The matter had, however, undergone a full discussion on a former occasion, but if any hon. Gentleman wished additional information respecting it, he should be most happy to afford it. He would then only move, "That the House should resolve itself into Committee, for the purpose of considering a Resolution which he meant to propose relative to the Disabilities under which that portion of his Majesty's subjects, professing the Jewish religion laboured, and to justify his introduction of a Bill on the subject."

Sir Robert Inglis

thought, this was one of those occasions which justified him in departing from the ordinary practice of the House. He admitted, that the usual course was not to object to any measure until the second reading; but, although that was the case generally speaking, he felt it his duty in limine to oppose the introduction of any such measure as that which the right hon. Gentlemen opposite proposed, and therefore he should divide the House on the present Motion.

The House divided on the Question: Ayes 53; Noes 9—Majority 44.

The House went into Committee, and a Resolution was agreed to, purporting that it was advisable to relieve his Majesty's Jewish subjects from Civil Disabilities.
