§ MAJOR NOLANasked Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, If he will be able to introduce and to print the Bill relating to County Government in Ireland prior to the Second Reading of the Bill on County Government in England?
§ SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACHSir, I beg to be allowed to answer the Question of the hon. and gallant Gentleman. It was my intention to endeavour to find an opportunity to intro- 1620 duce the Bill to amend the Irish Grand Laws immediately after the close of the recent debates on foreign affairs, but some 10 days ago my attention was directed to other matters. It would be a great advantage to have the Bill before the House as early as possible, and I shall take the earliest opportunity of communicating with my Successor on the subject.
