HC Deb 09 March 1866 vol 181 cc1809-10
MR. DARBY GRIFFITH

said, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, How it is that the Mutiny Bill, which stands for Committee that evening, is not printed and in the hands of Members?

THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON

said, he believed the Bill was now printed, and that the hon. Member might obtain a copy of it if he pleased.
