HC Deb 11 May 1847 vol 92 c689
MR. MITCHELL

said, the noble Lord at the head of the Government had given notice of his intention to propose a further suspension of the Corn Duties. He wished to know whether it was the noble Lord's intention also to propose a further suspension of the Navigation Laws?

LORD J. RUSSELL

I do mean to propose a further suspension of the Navigation Laws; but the precise mode in which I shall do so requires further consideration. I must reserve myself as to the mode, until I make the Motion of which I have given notice to the House.
