HC Deb 26 May 1876 vol 229 c1275
MR. R. SMYTH,

in consequence of the reply of the right hon. Gentleman, begged, to ask him, Whether, as the Government appeared to have time at their disposal, they would afford him facilities for carrying a Bill founded upon the Resolution of the House passed on the 13th instant and relating to the Sunday Liquor Traffic in Ireland?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER,

in reply, said, he had given reasons the other day why Her Majesty's Government could not undertake to introduce a measure on the subject referred to, and the same reasons would render it impossible for them to make the promise the hon. Member asked for.
