HC Deb 18 June 1890 vol 345 c1290

Order for Committee read.

MR. MILVAIN (Durham)

I would ask the hon. Member for Cirencester, seeing that he has a direct pecuniary interest in the passing of this Bill, whether he can see his way, after the episode of last evening, to withdraw it?

MR. SPEAKER

There is notice of an Instruction to the Committee, but the Instruction is not moved. The Instruction is irregular, because it is in a mandatory form, and as it is not moved I have no alternative but to leave the Chair at once.

MR. WINTERBOTHAM (Gloucester, Cirencester)

I do not know whether I may say by way of personal answer—

MR. SPEAKER

left the Chair.

Bill considered in Committee.

(In the Committee.)

Clause 1.

Committee report Progress; to sit again to-morrow.
