HC Deb 25 November 1909 vol 13 c333
Mr. STEADMAN

With your permission, Sir, I desire to move the Motion standing in my name—"Return of the number of Peers in the House of Lords at the time of passing the first Reform Bill in 1832, the number of persons who have been made Peers since then up to the present date, by whom they were made Peers, and their profession, occupation, or calling."

Mr. SPEAKER

That does not rest with me. It rests with the Government, who have not given notice of their consent.
