HC Deb 01 July 1863 vol 172 c44

MR. C. P. VILLIERS moved for leave to introduce a Bill to extend for a further period the provisions of the Union Relief Aid Act. The Bill was identical with that introduced at the beginning of the Session, which had been passed only for two quarters, upon the understanding that if there should be a necessity it should be renewed. There was a necessity for a renewal, and therefore he asked leave to bring in the Bill.

MR. J. TOLLEMACHE

regretted to hear that the Bill was simply a renewal of the existing Act, some provisions of which were very objectionable to his constituents in Cheshire.

Motion agreed to.

Bill to extend for a further period the provisions of the Union Relief Aid Act, ordered to be brought in by Mr. VILLIERS and Mr. GILPIN.

Bill presented, and read 1o. [Bill 199.]
