§ MR. RYLANDSasked the President of the Board of Trade, Whether, seeing that the Vote for Dover Harbour had been carried by a majority of only 1, he would undertake that no proceedings should be taken upon the Vote until after next Session?
§ MR. CHICHESTER FORTESCUE, in reply, said, he was not aware that it was the duty of Her Majesty's Government to give any further opportunity to the House to exercise its judgment upon the matter. He would remind his hon. Friend that the Vote was a very small one, and that there was no serious opposition or difference of opinion between the House and the Government as to the merits of a completed harbour at Dover. The question was mainly one as to whether they should make any beginning during the present Session.
