LORD DENMAN

I beg to move to leave out subsection (1), in Clause 5, page 4. Off the coasts of Ireland, the whale has a different rank or class to what it has off Scotland. Off the coast of Ireland it is a Royal fish, but off Scotland it is only an ordinary fish.

Amendment moved— In page 4, to leave out subsection (1) of Clause 5."—(Lord Denman.)

On Question, Amendment agreed to.

Bill passed, and returned to the Commons.
