§ The PRIME MINISTERIt is hoped that the advisory committee for Sussex, which there has been some trouble in arranging, will be set up before the end of this month. The division of the county will be duly considered.
§ The PRIME MINISTERI think not, I have given the answer the Lord Chancellor gave me, that it is hoped the Advisory Committee will be set up before the end of this month.
§ Earl WINTERTONasked the Prime Minister if, and when, he is prepared to grant a day for the discussion of the appointment of justices of the peace?
