§ MR. A. C. MORTONI beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the Government will consider the advisability of not filling up the vacancy under "The Political Pensions Act, 1869," caused by the death of Lord Emlyn, until this House has had an opportunity of expressing an opinion with regard to the repeal of that Act of Parliament?
§ SIR W. HARCOURTNo appointment has been made, but I am not in a position to give my hon. Friend the pledge for which he asks.
