HC Deb 07 May 1863 vol 170 c1303
MR. LYGON

said, he would beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether he intends to persevere in the Motion of which he has given notice, to move, in the event of this Bill passing the Committee that night, the remaining stages?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

said, his intention was to give the noble Lord the Member for Stamford (Lord Robert Cecil) an opportunity, on the Motion for the Third Reading, of raising a discussion upon the notice he had announced. Owing, however, to some defect in intimating that intention, the Order was set down for going into Committee. Under these circumstances it would not be regular to proceed with the subsequent stages, and he should not propose to go further than the Committee that night.
