§ THE MARQUESS OF RIPONwished to ask the noble Duke opposite (the Duke of Richmond and Gordon), What were the intentions of Her Majesty's Government with respect to medical legislation this Session?
THE DUKE OF RICHMOND AND GORDONA Bill on this subject will be introduced in the other House of Parliament. A measure on the question passed your Lordships' House last year, and the Bill of the present year will be referred to the same Committee which considered the measure of last year, in the hope of our being able to legislate on the subject. But, of course, that will depend very much on the progress of the labours of the Committee.
§ House adjourned at a quarter past Five o'clock, to Monday next, Eleven o'clock.
