HC Deb 17 February 1866 vol 181 c730

Bill considered in Committee (on recommitment.)

MR. HUNT

desired to explain what arrangement had been come to between him and the right hon. Gentleman the Secretary of State for the Home Department. It had been arranged that the Cattle Diseases Bill, which had just been passed, should deal with the movement of cattle only as regarded their carriage by rail and their landing at ports. The Bill under consideration, it had been arranged, should deal with the movement of cattle generally; and, therefore, all other clauses foreign to that matter had been struck out of it. He was obliged to the Government for having consented to his proposal to place this Bill first upon the Orders of the Day for Monday, and he moved that the Chairman report Progress.

Committee report Progress; to sit again on Monday next.

Mr. SPEAKER

left the Chair at six o'clock.

Mr. SPEAKER

resumed the Chair at eleven o'clock.
