HC Deb 25 July 1887 vol 317 c2006

Order for Second Reading read.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir RICHARD WEBSTER) (Isle of Wight)

In moving the discharge of this Order, I desire to say that I am obliged to adopt that course in face of the persistent opposition with which the Bill has been met by those who are unwilling that any grievance should be removed, which at this period of the Session prevents all chance of the Bill getting into Committee. I hope that early next Session we may be enabled to deal with the subject.

Motion made, and Question, "That the Order for the Second Reading be discharged,"—(Sir Richard Webster,)—put, and agreed to.

Order discharged.

Bill withdrawn.
