HC Deb 18 July 1890 vol 347 cc226-7

Bill, as amended, considered (Queen's Consent signified).

(4.14.) Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be now read the third time."

(4. 16.) MR. A. O'CONNOR (Donegal, E.)

When the Bill was last before the House I addressed an inquiry to the right hon. Gentleman in charge of it as to the manner in which certain colonies would be affected by it, and he was good enough to say that he would consider the question whether the Preamble should not be modified in order to save the rights of the colonies.

*(4.16). THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir R. WEBSTER,) Isle of Wight

It does not seem to me that any alteration in the Preamble is required.

Question put, and agreed to.

Bill read the third time, and passed, with an Amendment.
