HC Deb 24 February 1842 vol 60 c1006
Mr. W. S. O'Brien

wished to know whether the right hon. Baronet at the head of the Government had any objection to state, for the information of the corn trade, whether, on the passing of his bill, the averages of the six weeks immediately preceding would be made use of, or whether the operation of the bill was to be deferred until averages had been taken in the new manner for six weeks.

Sir R. Peel

begged to postpone answering the question until the details of his bill were before the House.
