HC Deb 30 July 1890 vol 347 c1323

Order read for consideration of Bill, as amended.

MR. J. R. KELLY (Camberwell, N.)

I object.

* MR. CHANNING (Northampton)

May I ask the President of the Local Government Board whether, seeing this Bill is warmly supported on both sides of the House, he will arrange to take the Bill when it cannot be defeated by an individual objector?

* THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. RITCHIE,) Tower Hamlets, St. George's

The Government attach so much importance to this measure that they intend to take such steps as will insure its passing. I am surprised that my hon. Friend the Member for North Camberwell, looking at the universal acceptance of the Bill, does not allow it to proceed, seeing that it is only half-past five.

Amendment, as amended, deferred till to-morrow.
