§ SIR WILLIAM FRASER, asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether, should he consider the power of the Lord Chamberlain in adequate, he will, by increasing or altering such power, provide for the security of the public visiting places of public amusement?
MR. ASSHETON CROSS, in reply, said, that the Lord Chamberlain had been in communication with the Home Office on the subject for some time; but that it being found necessary to take the opinion of the Law Officers of the Crown on the point, no steps had yet been taken in the matter. The question, however, was under consideration, their opinion on the case having just been received.
