HL Deb 30 April 1877 vol 234 c100
EARL GRANVILLE

My Lords, I beg to give Notice that in Committee on the Burials Bill I will move an Amendment on the 74th clause, and also move to add two clauses embodying the Resolution which was matter of discussion on the second reading. The words of my Amendment to the 74th clause and of the two clauses I will lay before your Lordships on another evening. I may observe that the Committee is put down for Ascension Day, and as that is a day on which your Lordships do not sit, I do not know whether there is any significance in the circumstance.

THE EARL OF CARNARVON

said, that the putting down of the Committee for Ascension Day must have been an oversight. He would bring it under the notice of his noble Friend the Lord President, who had charge of the Bill, but was not then in his place.
