HC Deb 23 February 1877 vol 232 c898
GENERAL SHUTE

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether it is the intention of Government to bring in a Bill this Session relating to police superannuation, or whether any measure is likely to result from the proceedings of the Select Committee which took a great deal of evidence on this subject during the Session of 1875?

MR. ASSHETON CROSS

, in reply, said, the Committee in question took a great deal of evidence, but they adjourned because they were in want of certain financial statements which had to be made, and which it took a long time to complete. Those financial statements were, he believed, now completed. His hon. Friend the Under Secretary would in a few days move the re-appointment of the Committee, and as soon as their labours were concluded the Government would endeavour to see what could be done in the matter.
