HL Deb 20 July 1893 vol 15 c64

House in Committee (according to Order).

THE LORD CHANCELLOR

My Lords, upon this Bill I have prepared some Amendments upon Clause 4; but I find that it would be more convenient to those who are interested in the matter that, the discussion should not take place upon them just now; and as they are entirely upon matters of detail, although involving, no doubt, important points, I should propose to defer moving the Amendments until the Bill is in Standing Committee.

LORD HALSBURY

My Lords, I think that course would be most convenient. Although, as my noble and learned Friend has said, they are matters of detail, still they are of considerable importance; and my impression is that they would be much better discussed, in the first instance at all events, in Standing Committee.

Bill reported without Amendment; and re-committed to the Standing Committee.
