have considered the Mines (Working Facilities and Support) Bill … and have heard evidence thereon.They are of the opinion that the Bill is pure consolidation and represents the existing law and there is no point to which they think that the attention of Parliament should be drawn.I beg to move.
§ Moved, That the Bill be now read 3.—(The Lord Chancellor.)
§ On Question, Bill read 3 and passed, and sent to the Commons.
