HC Deb 14 May 1888 vol 326 cc121-2

Order for Consideration, as amended, read.

DR. TANNER (Cork Co., Mid)

said, he wished to have an assurance in regard to the Bill. Various remonstrances against it had reached him from Cork, and among those who complained were the Corporation of Cork and the Cork Harbour Commissioners, both of which Bodies had petitioned against the Bill. He wished to know, therefore, whether, before the Bill was considered and ordered to be read a third time, they were to receive some assurance from the hon. Members in charge of it that the Petitions to which he referred would receive due consideration.

MR. DEPUTY SPEAKER

said, the Question before the House was "that the Bill be ordered to be read the third time."

DR. TANNER

said, he wished to point out that the Bill dealt with very important matters.

MR. DEPUTY SPEAKER

said, that if the Bill was opposed it must go over until to-morrow.

Bill, as amended, to be considered To-morrow.
