HC Deb 13 July 1885 vol 299 c433
SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT

asked when it was proposed to take the next stage of the Criminal Law Amendment Bill? He understood that it had been fixed for to-morrow.

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHE-QUER (Sir MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH)

said, the Government had not anticipated that the Bill would be taken tomorrow, when it was proposed to put down the Education Estimates as the first Order. They proposed, however, to proceed with the Bill on the earliest possible day.
