MR. O. STANLEYasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he has considered the desirability for the due administration of justice in Wales of amending the Law as regards Juries; and, if he will introduce a Bill for Wales similar to the one just introduced for Ireland, enacting that persons unable to speak, read, or write the English language should be exempted from serving as jurors in Wales; and also for raising the property qualification of jurors?
MR. BRUCE,in reply, said, that there was a Bill before the House on the subject of Juries, and he thought the most convenient and satisfactory way to deal with the difficult and important question his hon. Friend had raised would be to place Amendments to it on the Notice Paper, which would enable the Government fully to consider his proposition.
