§ Order of the Day for the Second Reading read.
§ LORD DESBOROUGHMy Lords, I should be sorry to take up the time of the House with a detailed speech upon a Bill which, I believe, is of a purely formal character, but if there are any questions upon it that noble Lords wish to ask I shall be happy to reply to them. I beg to move.
§ Moved, That the Bill be now read 2a.—(Lord Desborough.)
§ On Question, Bill read 2a, and committed to a Committee of the Whole House.
