HC Deb 16 May 1899 vol 71 cc748-9
MR. DALY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will request the Government to apply the Private Legislation Procedure (Scotland) Bill now before Parliament to Ireland this session?

MR. G. W. BALFOUR

I have received no communications on this subject from hon. Members representating Irish Constituencies, and, as at present advised, 1 am of opinion it would be better to deal with the matter of Private Bill Procedure fur Ireland by means of a separate Bill.

MR. DALY

Will it be this session?

MR. G. W. BALFOUR

No, Sir.
