§ SIR JOSEPH M'KENNA (for Mr. BUTT)asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether he intends during this Session to bring in any Bill dealing with the question of Union Eating?
§ MR. R. POWERasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether he intends during the present Session to bring in any Bill dealing with the Irish Jury Laws; and, if so, when he will introduce it?
§ SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH, in reply, said, that a measure on the Irish Jury Laws had for some time past been drafted; but, as the progress of Public Business had not been encouraging, it was, he was afraid, utterly hopeless that it could be proceeded with this year. He expected, however, to be able to introduce, at the earliest possible period next Session, a general Bill dealing with the question. As to Union Eating, the subject was one which he thought could be best dealt with in a measure dealing with the Grand Jury Laws, which was even a larger question, and it would be for the same reason impossible for him to propose legislation on it this Session.
