HC Deb 16 July 1840 vol 55 c766

House in Committee on the Metropolitan Police Courts Bill.

On the 6th clause,

Colonel Wood moved the omission of the latter part of the clause, for he could not consent to the ambulatory paid police magistrates under this bill, being permitted to supersede the county magistrates in their own courts.

Mr. F. Maule

could not consent to omit any part of the clause.

Mr. Hawes

said, some provision of the sort was necessary, unless measures were taken for carrying the Police Act thoroughly into effect.

The Committee divided on the question, that the words proposed to be left out stand part of the clause: Ayes 51; Noes 29: Majority 22.
