§ Order of the Day for the House to go into Committee (on Re-commitment), read.
§ THE MARQUESS OF LANSDOWNEsaid, since the Bill was last before their Lordships, it had been thought desirable to introduce some Amendments to the clauses dealing with the restrictions on private practitioners. The noble Duke opposite (the Duke of Richmond and Gordon), had expressed a wish, which he thought a reasonable one, that 744 in dealing with this question, they should adopt the machinery of the Act of 1858. That was the object of the Amendments he proposed to introduce on re-commitment.
§ House in Committee accordingly; Bill reported, without Amendment; and to be read 3a To-morrow.
