HL Deb 23 February 1830 vol 22 c846
The Duke of Richmond

presented a petition from one hundred and eighty-one farmers of Romney-marsh, praying for an alteration of the Duties on Wool. He took this opportunity of correcting a mistake which had gone forth respecting what he had stated on the first day of the Session. What he then stated was, that he did not intend to bring forward any resolution on the subject of the Duties on Wool, unless numerous petitions were presented, and unless he saw a better chance of success than on former occasions.
