HC Deb 24 March 1841 vol 57 c589

On the Order of the Day forgoing into Committee on the County Coroners Bill being read,

Colonel Wood

thought the bill went to establish altogether a new principle of election, and he should, therefore, oppose the bill, and take the sense of the House upon it, when it was to be discussed in committee, unless it was previously altered. He understood, that the present motion was merely to commit the bill, pro formâ, and, therefore, he should not offer any opposition.

House in Committee, pro formâ.

Report to be taken into consideration, on Wednesday, the 5th May.
