§ MR. T. DUNCOMBEsaid, it was not his intention, considering the state of matters, to proceed with his notice for the nomination of the Select Committee on the grievances of the Land Transport Corps. At the same time he was happy to state that those grievances were under the consideration of the War Department, and he hoped they would be adjusted to the satisfaction of all parties. Of course if they were not, it would be open to him to renew his notice early in the next Session of Parliament, if he should have the honour of a seat in that House. He wished, however, to remind the Government that the Order in Council with regard to the disbanding of the Land Transport Corps had not been as yet laid upon the table, as had been promised.
§ SIR GEORGE GREY,on behalf of his hon. Friend the Under Secretary for War, would undertake to say that the papers in question would be presented before the dissolution of Parliament.
§ Motion for adjournment, by leave, withdrawn.
