HC Deb 22 January 1878 vol 237 c357

Order for Second Heading read.

SIR CHARLES W. DILKE,

in moving that the Bill be now read a second time, said, it would carry out the Report of the Committee of last Session on this subject. It was also recommended that the Committee should this year be reappointed, to take into consideration the case with regard to the rest of the country. He had accordingly moved for the re-appointment of the Committee, and it had been re-appointed. The case of London seemed to the Committee last year to stand alone, and all parties were agreed as to the necessity for the present Bill.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be now read a second time."—(Sir Charles W. Dilke.)

Motion agreed to.

Bill read a second time, and committed for To-morrow.
