§ SIR J. PEASE (Durham, Barnard Castle)I beg to ask the Home Secretary, with regard to the recent outrage in a bank at Durham, where a clerk was wounded by a revolver, whether it is intended to take any steps for registering the sale of revolvers?
§ MR. ASQUITHThis is a subject which has engaged my careful consideration, and with the aid of the Under Secretary I have drawn up at least the heads of a measure which I hope will satisfactorily deal with the matter. I do not know when I shall be able to introduce it.
