HC Deb 23 July 1891 vol 356 cc198-9

Order read, for resuming Adjourned Debate on Question [8th July], "That the Bill be now read a second time."

Question again proposed.

Debate resumed.

(11.55.) SIR W. HARCOURT (Derby)

The Chancellor of the Exchequer is probably aware that several hon. Members have observations to make on this Bill which are well worthy the attention of the House. I hope if this stage is allowed now to be taken he will take care that an opportunity is given on future stages for those remarks to be made.

MR. GOSCHEN

I recognise the spirit of conciliation shown by hon. Members in allowing the Bill to be read a second time. I quite agree that an opportunity should be afforded hon. Members to speak on this Bill, and will take care that the subsequent stages are taken at a convenient hour.

Question put, and agreed to.

Bill read a second time, and committed for Monday next.
