§ MR. BELLasked Mr. Attorney General, Whether the Commission appointed to inquire into the propriety of altering the Bankruptcy Laws have presented a Report, and what steps Her Majesty's Government propose taking in reference to this question?
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL, in reply, said, no Commission had been appointed to inquire into the propriety of altering the Bankruptcy Laws. A small Departmental Committee had been appointed by the Lord Chancellor to inquire into certain points in those laws, and a Bill to carry out the views of that Committee would be introduced as soon as the progress of Public Business would permit.
