HC Deb 06 April 1892 vol 3 cc810-1

Order for Second Reading read.

MR. MARJORIBANKS (Berwickshire)

May I ask the Lord Advocate to inform us as to the course the Government purpose to take in regard to this Bill, which has been introduced to give effect to the Resolution moved by myself and accepted by the Government, together with the addition suggested by the First Lord of the Treasury?

* THE LORD ADVOCATE (Sir C. J. PEARSON, Edinburgh and St. Andrews Universities)

I believe it is possible a measure may be introduced by the Government for dealing with this matter. But in reference to this Bill it is out of the question that it should pass a Second Reading without a full discussion.

Second Reading deferred till Monday next.
