§ THE LORD CHANCELLORMy Lords, I beg to move, That it is desirable that all Consolidation Bills in the present Session be referred to a Joint Committee of both Houses of Parliament. This is the ordinary formal Motion to appoint a Committee for consolidation purposes. We have in an advanced state of preparation a Bill to consolidate all the County Court Acts, and it is hoped that it may be possible to put it on the Statute Book before the Long Vacation.
§ Moved, That it is desirable that all Consolidation Bills in the present Session be referred to a Joint Committee of both Houses of Parliament.—(The Lord Chancellor.)
§ On Question, Motion agreed to.
§ Ordered, That a Message be sent to the Commons to communicate this Resolution, and to desire their concurrence.
