HC Deb 30 June 1882 vol 271 c937
MR. TOTTENHAM

On an early day, to call the attention of the House to the farce which is being enacted in Ireland of appointing an official valuer, and—[Cries of "Order!"]

MR. T. P. O'CONNOR

I rise to Order. I wish to ask you, Sir, whether it is in accordance with the Orders and Regulations of this House that an hon. Member should give Notice of a Question containing expressions of opinion with regard to an important tribunal in Ireland; and, whether the hon. Member who just now rose has not on previous occasions been reproved by you from the Chair for giving Notice of similar Questions?

MR. SPEAKER

Should the Question of the hon. Member, when it is brought to the Table, be found out of Order, it would have to undergo revision. I am bound to say, so far as I caught the expression of the hon. Member, that it would be necessary that the Question should undergo revision.

MR. TOTTENHAM

It is not a Notice of a Question; but a Notice to call the attention of the House to the subject.
