HC Deb 10 July 1885 vol 299 cc286-7
LORD CLAUD HAMILTON

asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, If he will be good enough to offer facilities for the discussion and progress of the Police Enfranchisement Extension Bill?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Sir MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH)

I cannot at present promise to do what my noble Friend desires me to do. I am afraid I cannot go beyond the state- ment I made on Tuesday as to the Business with which Her Majesty's Government propose to ask the House to deal. We have our own Business to consider; but I hope, however, that my noble Friend, and those who are interested in the Bill, will do the best themselves to bring the subject under the consideration of the House.
