HC Deb 22 February 1869 vol 194 c164
MR. BRUCE

said, he wished to take that opportunity of stating that it was not his intention to proceed that evening with the Bill which he had given Notice of his intention to ask leave to introduce. Her Majesty's Government had taken into consideration the representations which had been made in both Houses with regard to a division of labour, and it had been thought most convenient that this Bill should be introduced into the House of Lords, where his noble Friend (the Lord Privy Seal) would, in the course of a day or two, bring it in.
