§ SIR R. PEELMay I be allowed to add a few words on another subject? I said yesterday, that I would to-day give notice of the course which will be taken on Monday with regard to the proposal of my hon. Friend the Member for North Lancashire 1284 (Mr. W. Patten), as to those railway termini which it is proposed to place either within the metropolis or immediately adjoining it. I find that the debate has been adjourned until Monday, and therefore there is some difficulty in my giving any notice on the part of Her Majesty's Government; but it will probably suffice if I state that Her Majesty's Government are prepared to act on the recommendation of the Committee of which the hon. Gentleman (Mr. W. Patten) is the chairman; and on Monday next, on the resumption of the debate, it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to acquiesce in that Motion, and to advise Her Majesty to appoint a Royal Commission for the purpose of considering that important question—namely, the manner in which those railway projects having their termini in the metropolis shall be dealt with.
