HC Deb 27 March 1893 vol 10 c1294

Order for Second Reading read.

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

MR. BRODRICK

asked the hon. Member to consent to the Bill being put off until after Easter.

MR. T. M. HEALY

hoped the hon. Member would not give way. What happened the last night this Bill was mentioned was this: The hon. Member who had just made this request did what he had never known anybody do behind the back of other hon. Gentlemen— namely, he took hold of the Bill and proposed it should be postponed for a fortnight.

MR. SPEAKER

said the Bill was not printed.

MR. RENDEL

I hope it will be distributed to-morrow.

Second Reading deferred.
