HC Deb 18 May 1849 vol 105 cc662-3
MR. J. O'CONNELL

Mr. Speaker. I beg to give a notice upon a matter concerning the privileges of this House, connected with the last discussion upon the Parliamentary Oaths Bill. In consequence of having seen in the Times newspaper another breach of the privileges of this House by a report of the last discussion upon the Parliamentary Oaths Bill, in which report not only were the rules of the House violated, but the arguments of some Catholic Members were entirely omitted, whilst the arguments against them were duly reported, I shall, to-night, when the discussion upon the Parliamentary Oaths Bill comes before this House, endeavour to ascertain if there be strangers present, and if I find that to be the case, I shall draw the attention of the House to that fact.

Back to
