§ Order for Second Reading, read.
§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be now read a second time."
§ MR. KENNY (Tyrone, Mid)It is contrary to the general understanding to take advantage of an unexpected opportunity on a Friday evening, to rush a Bill of this description through without explanation. I hope we shall not be asked to proceed with a Bill of which we know nothing. The Attorney General is present, and perhaps he can give us the Government view in regard to it.
§ Notice taken that 40 Members were not present; House counted, and 40 Members not being present,—
§ House was adjourned at ten minutes before Twelve o'clock till Monday next.
