Excerpt from Hansard's Parliamentary Debates, Vol. 137: Commencing With the Accession of William IV., 18 Victoriæ, 1855, Comprising the Period From the Second Day of March, 1855, to the Second Day of May, 1855

Colonel dunne said, that some hon. Gentlemen appeared to be seeking to make political capital out of this question. He thought it was not unreasonable that Irish Members should defer their questions till the Secretary for Ireland was in his place, but it was singular to find that the Govern ment had placed on the orders of the day an Irish Bill - the Lunatic Asylums (ire land) Advances Bill - for second reading. That Bill should certainly stand over till the Secretary for Ireland was in the House, and, moreover, Members ought to be told when the business relating to Ireland would be taken.

Motion for the adjournment of the House until Monday, agreed to.
