HC Deb 03 March 1893 vol 9 cc1066-7

Order for Second Reading read.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be now read a second time."—(Mr. J. A. Picton.)

Objection taken.

MR. PICTON

The Bill contains no new principle, and I hope the hon. Member will not press his objection.

Objection withdrawn.

MR. ASQUITH

I hope the House will give a Second Reading to this Bill. There are a number of provisions, but I think the House generally approves of its principle.

Second Reading deferred till Monday next.
