HC Deb 23 February 1877 vol 232 c981
SIR MICHAEL HICKS - BEACH

moved that the Select Committee on the Sale of Intoxicating Liquors on Sunday (Ireland) Bill do consist of 17 Members, and that Mr. Ion Trant Hamilton and Mr. O'Shaughnessy be added to the Committee.

SIR WILFRID LAWSON

asked why the Committee was to be increased?

CAPTAIN NOLAN

thought it desirable that the hon. Member for Limerick (Mr. O'Shaughnessy) should be added, as he was the Representative of a large constituency. It was quite possible what might suit the city of Dublin might not suit the smaller towns of Limerick and Waterford, and therefore it was absolutely necessary that one of those two towns should be represented on the Committee.

Motion agreed to.

Select Committee on the Sale of Intoxicating Liquors on Sunday (Ireland) Bill to consist of Seventeen Members:—Mr. ION HAMILTON and Mr. O'SHAUGHNESSY added to the Committee.

House adjourned at a quarter before One o'clock till Monday next.
