Bill considered in Committee.
(In the Committee.)
Schedule I.
, moved as an Amendment, in page 2, line 5, to omit the words from "London" to the word "Middlesex" in line 8. The hon. Member said his reason for doing so was, that these tramways were generally objected to by the inhabitants of the metropolis.
Amendment proposed, in page 2, to leave out from the word "London," in line 5, to the word "Middlesex," in line 8.—( Mr. Beresford Hope.)
said, he had visited the locality, and saw no objection to the proposed extension.
said, the tramways had been approved of by the local authorities, and a Committee of Parliament, and on those grounds he should oppose the Amendment.
Question put, "That the words proposed to be left out stand part of the Schedule."
The Committee divided:—Ayes 90; Noes 8: Majority 82.
House resumed.
Bill reported, without further Amendment; to be read the third time upon Monday next.
