HC Deb 18 February 1864 vol 173 c717
MR. H. B. SHERIDAN

said, he would beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether it is his intention to proceed with the Government Annuities Bill tomorrow; and whether, considering that the title of the Bill does not convey the real objects of the Bill, and that it has passed through two stages without being fully understood; and further, considering the great interests affected by the proposed alteration of the law, the right hon. Gentleman would have any objection to postpone, for a short time, the consideration of the measure?

SIR GEORGE GREY

said, in the absence of his right hon. Colleague, he must ask the hon. Gentleman to repeat his Question.
