HC Deb 10 December 1847 vol 95 c924
MR. AGLIONBY

asked whether it were the intention of the Government to introduce any measure for the compulsory enfranchisement of copyhold and customary tenures?

SIR GEORGE GREY

had received from the Copyhold Commissioners their report, which had been presented to Parliament, and it would be in hand in a day or two. In that report would be found modified recommendations, not going the full length, of what the hon. Member would desire to see accomplished, but carrying out the object to a certain extent; and a Bill was in preparation for carrying the objects into effect.
