Ordered,
That a Committee of Seven Members be appointed to join with a Committee appointed by the Lords to consider how far it would be desirable, in the case where a Bill had passed through the House of Commons but where there was not sufficient time properly to consider it in the House of Lords, to carry the Bill over so that in the next Session of the same Parliament, notwithstanding the Prorogation, the consent of the House of Commons given in the previous Session might remain effective, and the proceedings on the Bill be recommenced or resumed in the House of Lords."—[Sir G. Hennessy.]
