HC Deb 09 March 1922 vol 151 c1484
68. Mr. CAUTLEY

asked the Home Secretary whether he will consider the advantage of taking the opinion of His Majesty's Judges of the King's Bench as to the expediency or desirability of taking away the defence of reasonable cause of belief under Sections 5 and 6 of the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1885?

Mr. SHORTT

I do not think it would bs right or proper for mc to attempt to elicit such an expression of opinion.
