HL Deb 24 May 1811 vol 20 c296
The Earl of Liverpool

addressed their lordships on the subject of the recent vote of the House of Commons, in favour of Mr. Palmer. He expressed his satisfaction at the notice taken by noble lords of the subject on a former evening; and he disapproved of such a proceeding on the part of the other House, after the question had been fully discussed, and decided in the negative by their lordships. He thought it preferable that no proposition should be made in that House, in consequence, but that they should wait until the answer of his royal highness the Prince Regent upon the occasion should be known. He, for one, as a member of his Majesty's government, or an adviser of his royal highness, should not recommend to him to sanction or authorize the grant of money for satisfying a claim which their lordships' House had decided to be unfounded.

The Earl of Radnor

expressed his satisfaction at what had fallen from the noble secretary of state.
