§ SIR EARDLEY WILMOTasked the President of the Board of Trade, If he would consider the expediency of extending the provisions of the Bankruptcy Bill to estates now in liquidation?
§ MR. CHAMBERLAINSir, the subject raised by the Question of the hon. Baronet is one of great importance, and it has already engaged my careful attention. I did not propose to deal with it in the Bankruptcy Bill, because I was afraid of overloading that measure. When, however, the Bill reaches the Committee stage, I shall be glad to consider any Amendments that may be proposed with this object.
