HC Deb 10 February 1842 vol 60 c247
Mr. T. Duncombe

asked when the right hon. Baronet would produce to the House the bill alluded to in the Speech from the Throne for the registration of electors?

Sir R. Peel

replied, that the bill was prepared, and would be introduced at as early a period as possible, but he did not think it would be advantageous to enter upon the discussion till by the settlement of other questions it could be fully discussed.

Mr. T. Duncombe

said, all he wished was, that the bill should be laid on the Table, that the country might have plenty of time for its consideration, and that the second reading should not be pressed till after Easter.

Sir R. Peel

promised that there should be ample time for the consideration of the bill.
