HC Deb 12 April 1866 vol 182 c1118
MR. WHALLEY

said, in reference to the Report of the Committee on Turnpike Trusts (1864), recommending that pending the abolition of the present system a certain class of Trusts theretofore kept alive by the Annual Continuance Act should thereafter be excluded there from, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether such Act can be introduced before Whitsuntide; and, if not, why not?

MR. BARING

said, in reply, that it would be quite possible to bring in the Bill to which the hon. Gentleman referred before Whitsuntide; but he apprehended that it would be more convenient if its introduction were to be delayed till after that date, in order that full information might be procured in reference to the trusts in question.
