HL Deb 05 July 1898 vol 60 c1078
THE LORD PRIVY SEAL (Viscount CROSS)

My Lords, I have to move that the Order made on the 8th day of March, 1898— That no Provisional Order Confirmation Bill brought from the House of Commons shall be read a second time after Tuesday, the 28th day of June next, be dispensed with. The delay in this matter has been caused through great complications, and through difficulties which have been experienced in getting the consent of all the parties.

Question put.

Motion agreed to.

VISCOUNT CROSS

I move that the Bill be read a second time.

Question put.

Motion agreed to; Bill read a second time, and committed to a Committee of the whole House.
