- On clause 18 being proposed, which provided for the forma-
tion of Local Boards,
Mr. G. HOPE moved that no one be eligible to be elected to
sit at the Board, except a Commissioner of Supply who was also
a Justice of the Peace.
Mr. F. MAULE could not agree to the amendment, as there
were many retired officers and retired merchants who were
quite as fit for the sit.zation as either a Commissioner of Supply
or a Justice of the Peace.
Mr. HOPE said the Prisons in this country were under the
controul of the Justins, and he did not see any good reason
why the same principb ought net to obtain in Scotland. He
would divide upon his amendment.
Strangers were then ordered to withdraw
For the amendment
Against it
Majority against the amendment...
. The clause was then agreed to.
Clauses 19, 20, 21, and 22 were then agreed to, after which
the Chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again.
The Dean of Exeter, &c., Appointment Bill went thro gh
Committee.
