Sir GILBERT PARKERIs it the intention of the Government to proceed with the Pilotage Bill in the Autumn Session?
§ The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of TRADE (Mr. Buxton)I thought I had already stated, and I am glad to have this opportunity of stating, that the Bill was introduced only in order to give the various parties interested an opportunity of considering it, and I shall be very glad to receive representations in regard to it. There is no intention of proceeding with the Bill this Session. We hope to have an opportunity next Session.
