Vol. 34 No. 15

Shop Hours (Drapery Trades, Dublin and Districts) Bill, 1930—From the Seanad.

It is proposed to give time for the consideration of the Shop Hours (Drapery Trades, Dublin and Districts) Bill, 1930, on next Wednesday.

That is, to give time for a private Deputy to put down a motion to move the Second Reading.

Why not fix the Second Reading now?

I propose to give time next Wednesday if a private Deputy will move it.

I will undertake to move it next Wednesday. Can we have any indication from the Minister as to the Government's attitude on the Bill?

We may leave it to an open vote or we may oppose it. I do not know.

Is it to be treated as an opposed Bill?

It certainly will be an opposed Bill. I know that there are people who will oppose it.

Is it a Government opposed Bill?

I could not answer that.

A Deputy

Wait and see.

Is it necessary to wait and see?

Could we not leave it to Deputy J.J. Byrne to decide?

Second Reading of the Bill ordered for next Wednesday.
