§ COLONEL NOLANasked the honourable and learned Member for Bridport, If he is aware that the Bill to afford increased facilities for obtaining sites for places of worship, schools, and residences for teachers and clergymen in Ireland, applies to Ireland only; and, if he will remove his block, so as to permit of this Bill being read a second time, with a view to its being then referred to the consideration of a Committee?
§ MR. WARTONSir, I must thank the hon. and gallant Member for his courtesy in giving me Notice of this Question. With regard to the Question itself, I am quite aware that the Bill applies to Ireland only. Regarding it as an invasion of the rights of property, and Ireland being a country where these rights have been already attacked, I wish to prevent any further invasion; and, therefore, I decline to remove the block.
