HC Deb 21 February 1888 vol 322 cc1121-2

Motion made, and Question proposed, That leave be given to bring in a Bill to provide for the payment of Wages weekly in Ireland."—(Mr. De Cobain.)

MR. T. P. O'CONNOR (Liverpool, Scotland)

said, he did not know whether it was in Order to do so, but he would suggest to the hon. Member that he should place on the back of the Bill the name of a Colleague in the representation of Belfast (Mr. Sexton), who was prevented by serious illness from attending the House. He was sure his hon. Friend would not refuse to act in support of the Bill.

MR. DE COBAIN (Belfast, E.)

said, he would be most happy to add the name of the hon. Member, if he knew that the hon. Member wished it.

Mr. T. P. O'CONNOR

said, he thought the hon. Gentleman might take it that he would.

Motion agreed to.

Bill ordered to be brought in by Mr. Do Cobain, Mr. Fenwick, and Mr. Howell.

Bill presented, and read the first time. [Bill 139.]
