HC Deb 21 June 1888 vol 327 c937

Order for Second Reading read.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Second Reading be deferred till Thursday next."

DR. TANNER (Cork Co., Mid)

said, he desired to know if there was really any intention of taking the Bill on the day mentioned? It presented a subject in which a great number of Members were interested, notably Members connected with the Medical Profession.

THE SOLICITOR GENERAL (Sir EDWARD CLARKE) (Plymouth)

said, he did not understand that there was any contention on the question of principle. He hoped to bring the Bill upon Thursday, or, at all events, to find another opportunity then.

MR. CONYBEARE (Cornwall, Camborne)

said, many questions arose in relation to the Bill.

Question put, and agreed to.

Second Reading deferred till Thursday next.
