§ MR. T. M. HEALY (Longford, N.)asked, with reference to the Law of Evidence Amendment Bill, Whether the Government intended to keep it still on the Paper, and keep Members in attendance for it?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)said, he did not think this Bill would cause any prolonged opposition. Opposition would be offered in a very small quarter of the House. The Bill was received with almost universal favour; and he conceived that it would be his duty to endeavour to pass it in the present Session.
§ MR. T. M. HEALYsaid, he had a number of Amendments to the Bill; and if necessary he would wait till the end of the Session if the Bill was to be proceeded with.
