HC Deb 06 July 1863 vol 172 cc250-1
MR. HADFIELD

said, he wished to ask Mr. Attorney General, Whether he will introduce a Bill for alteration of the Circuits before the next Assizes commence, or at what other time?

SIR GEORGE GREY

replied, that the intentions of the Government on the sub- ject were not finally formed. The Lord Chancellor was in communication with the Judges relative to the provisions of a Bill which had been prepared on the subject by the Attorney General. It was, however, impossible that any alteration could come into operation before the next Spring Assizes.
