HC Deb 28 April 1879 vol 245 c1353

(Mr. Selater-Booth, Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Salt.)

COMMITTEE. [Progress 21st March.]

Order for Committee read.

MR. CLARE READ

said, he understood that the Bill was shortly to be taken at a Morning Sitting. He did hope that they would not have Morning Sittings for Bills of this description.

SIR HENRY SELWIN-IBBETSON

said, it was very difficult to satisfy the wishes of all Members, for he had been asked to give a Morning Sitting for this Bill by the hon. Member for South Leicestershire (Mr. Pell). It was the intention of the Government to ask for a Morning Sitting either for this or some other Bill; but he would take care the hon. Member had ample notice of what they intended to do.

Committee deferred till Thursday.
