HC Deb 12 April 1893 vol 11 cc178-9

Bill, as amended (by the Standing Committee) to be considered.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Hill be now taken into Consideration."—(Mr. Mundella.)

SIR R. TEMPLE (Surrey, Kingston)

said, that on behalf of several Members on the Opposition side of the House, he desired to point out to the Government that if they (the Government) desired to have those Bills to which no exception was taken passed, they should bring them in at the proper time. The Government, in spite of the protests of the Opposition, had taken the whole of the time of the House without any exception for the remainder of the Session; therefore he (Sir R. Temple) and his friends felt entitled to ask that they (the Government) should bring; on their Bills at a proper hour, and not after half-past 5 on a Wednesday, or after Midnight on other days.

MR. MUNDELLA

This Bill has passed through the Grand Committee, and is not opposed. It is most important that it should pass into law as soon as possible.

*MR. SPEAKER (to Sir R, Temple)

Does the hon. Baronet object?

SIR R. TEMPLE

Yes.

Consideration, as amended, deferred till To-morrow.
