BILLS UNCERTAIN.

HC Deb 20 August 1909 vol 9 cc1674-5

Then there are a certain number of other Bills, the titles of which appear on the Notice Paper to-day. They are—

• Customs and Inland Revenue Bill,
• Telegraph (Arbitration) Bill,
• Cinematograph Bill,
• Child Murder (Trial) Bill,
• Local Government (Audit of Accounts) (Ireland) Bill,
1675
• Lunacy (Ireland) Bill,
• Merchandise Marks (Ireland) Bill,
• Fisheries (Ireland) Bill,
• Weeds and Agricultural Seeds (Ireland) Bill,
• Dublin Police Bill.

None of these will be pressed if they excite anything in the nature of serious opposition in any part of the House, although we shall be glad to see them passed. The same observation applies to three other Bills which do not appear on our Paper, but which are in progress in the House of Lords, namely—

• Summary Jurisdiction (Scotland) Bill,
• Prisons (Scotland) Bill,
• Assurance Companies Bill.
