HC Deb 07 December 1857 vol 148 cc271-2
MR. BAGWELL

said, he would beg to ask the Chief Secretary for Ireland if it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to introduce a Bill for Reformatory Schools in Ireland this Session?

MR. HENRY HERBERT

said that the subject was beset with difficulties, and the right hon. Gentleman whom he succeeded in office had already introduced a measure which did not sufficiently avoid these diffi- culties. He did, however, intend to offer a Bill to the House, which he trusted might be more successful.
