HL Deb 01 March 1870 vol 199 cc992-3

Amendments reported (according to Order).

THE LORD CHANCELLOR

said, it had been suggested to him by a noble and learned Friend that the consent of the Chief Judge being now required to the sitting of one of his Puisne Judges in another court, the letter requesting such assistance should be sent to the Chief Judge of the court from which assistance was required, instead of to the Puisne Judge. He would accordingly propose that Clause 2 be modified in this sense.

Amendment agreed to.

Bill to be read 3a on Thursday next; to be printed as amended. (No. 25.)

House adjourned at a quarter past Five o'clock, to Thursday next, half past Ten o'clock.
