§ SIR HENRY JAMESasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether he would take steps to have the new Electoral Acts, the Franchise Act, the Redistribution Act, and the Registration Acts at once printed 1742 and distributed? Before the change of Government a promise was made that those Acts should be distributed at an early period, so as to be in the hands of all concerned before the General Election.
§ MR. BRODRICKsuggested that the new Corrupt Practices Act should also be issued.
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Sir R. ASSHETON CROSS)said, he should take care that was carried out as soon as possible. With regard to the further Question, the Corrupt Practices Act could be bought at the Queen's Printers.
