HL Deb 26 May 1884 vol 288 c1264
EARL DE LA WARR

asked, Whether it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to proceed with the Continuous Brakes Bill as proposed this Session?

LORD SUDELEY

The Regulation of Railways Bill was introduced and read a first time on Thursday last in the House of Commons. It has been distributed this morning; and Section 10 provides that the- Board of Trade may, at any time, order a Railway Company, within a limited time, to provide continuous brakes of some pattern approved by the Board. This provision will, I trust, meet the noble Earl's wishes in the matter.
