HC Deb 28 February 1878 vol 238 c446
MR. PARNELL

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether, in view of the lateness of Easter this Session, he will introduce the Mutiny Bill in time to afford full opportunities of discussing the principle and details of that measure before the Easter Recess?

MR. GATHORNE HARDY

I have to inform the hon. Member that I have no option in the matter. The Act expires on the 25th of April, and I must bring the Bill under discussion before that time.
