§ Viscount Morpeth moved for leave to bring in a Bill to Consolidate and Amend the Grand Jury Laws in Ireland. He did not think it necessary, upon the present occasion, to go into any full statement of the provisions contemplated by his Bill, but thought it batter to leave them for the consideration of hon. Gentlemen when the measure should be brought more fully under the notice of the House.
§ Mr. William S. O'Brienhoped, which he feared would not be the case, that the noble Viscount would introduce into the Grand Jury system of Ireland something of the principle of representation. He trusted the hon. Member for Middlesex would, when the question should again be brought forward, apply his attention to the consideration of the propriety of letting the people have a voice in the appointment of Irish Grand Juries.
§ Leave was given.
