HC Deb 25 November 1912 vol 44 c839W
Mr. NEWMAN

asked whether any Amendment will be inserted in the Government of Ireland Bill preventing Irish Members from speaking or voting upon English private Bills, or whether he proposes to take any steps to prevent English opinion being out-voted on private Bills by Irish opinion?

Mr. BIRRELL

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. The contingency mentioned in the second part of the question can hardly arise.
