Motion made, and Question proposed,
That the Bill be now read the third time."— [Sir A. Boscawen.]
§ (King's Consent and Prince of Wales' consent signified.)
§ Mr. ACLANDI desire to express, on behalf of the House, our congratulations to the Minister in charge of the Bill on the way in which he has conducted the Bill both in Committee upstairs and in the Report stage. He has shown the very greatest patience and good temper in listening to all we had to say, and very great knowledge of the subject, which is a complicated subject, as this procedure is largely by reference to a principal Act. which is no small matter to have to deal with. The hon. Gentleman has also shown great powers of endurance, as he has, to my knowledge, been sitting on that bench since three o'clock this afternoon, because I have been sitting opposite to him all the time, and seen that he has not gone away. Therefore I think the House would like to join with me in congratulating him.
§ Question put, and agreed to.
§ Bill accordingly read the third time, and passed.
