HC Deb 20 May 1841 vol 58 c676
The Chancellor of the Exchequer

Sir, I give notice that, on Monday next, I will move that the House shall resolve itself into a Committee of Ways and Means, with a view to move the usual annual Sugar Duties therein.

[This announcement occasioned much astonishment, and the House was crowded, expecting to hear some intimation of resignation or an explanation of the cause of not resigning.]
