HC Deb 17 April 1885 vol 297 c124

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That leave be given to bring in a Bill to amend 'The Medical Act, 1858.'"—(Dr. Lyons.)

MR. ARTHUR O'CONNOR

asked, did the hon. Member mean to re-introduce the particular Government Bill of last year?

DR. LYONS

said, that was not at all his object. It would be a small Bill having for its object the removal of disabilities of certain practitioners who were Members of the Irish College of Physicians, with reference to certain appointments in England, where it was a condition that candidates should be Members or Fellows of certain Colleges, and also to insert on the Register the title of Master of Obstetrics granted by the University of Dublin.

Motion agreed to.

Bill ordered to be brought in by Dr. LYONS.
