§ MR. CHARLES FORSTERinquired, Whether the Government intend to move the second reading of this Bill on Thursday next?
§ MR. GOSCHEN, in reply, said, that it was not the intention of the Government to proceed with the Bill on that day, but at the earliest opportunity after the Easter Recess. The local authorities in many large towns took great interest in the measure, and, in accordance with their wish, expressed through their representatives, the Government had determined to postpone the second reading in order to allow them the opportunity of discussing the provisions of the Bill among themselves.
