HC Deb 03 March 1892 vol 1 c1883

Order for Second Reading read.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. E. STANHOPE,) Lincolnshire, Horncastle

I hope the House will allow the Second Reading to be taken now. It is a purely consolidation Bill, and we propose that it should be sent to a Committee upstairs to examine it and see that the object is carried out by the details.

MR. SHAW LEFEVRE () Bradford, Central

I ask the right hon. Gentleman to postpone the Bill until he can give me an answer to the communication I have made to him.

Second Reading deferred till Monday next.
