§ MR. BRYCEasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether, considering the judgment recently given by the Court of Appeal in the case of "Kirby v. Biffen," "and the difficulties in which the Law as declared by that judgment places the overseers in making up the register of Parliamentary voters, it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to introduce any measure for further defining the qualification which is to entitle an occupier of rooms in a house to be placed upon the register, or for directing the overseers as to the manner in which they should make up the register?
§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT, in reply, said, that, important as that matter undoubtedly was, he was afraid that, in the present state of things, the Government was not able to undertake any further legislative engagements than those which they had already undertaken.
