Bill considered in Committee.

(In the Committee.)

On the Preamble.

MR. SCLATER-BOOTH

proposed to make an alteration in its terms, in order to meet an objection which had been raised, that some of the words in the recital were not supported by facts. He, therefore, moved to leave out those words in order to insert these—"It is expedient to amend the provisions of the Public Health Act of 1875."

Motion agreed to.

Bill reported; as amended, to be considered upon Monday next.
