Hansard's Parliamentary Debates

GENERAL INDEX TO SESSION 1877.

EXPLANATION OF THE ABBREVIATIONS.

Ir being a principal object of this Index, that the proceedings on each
Motion shall be completely recorded, some abbreviations of forms were
necessary. Those who are accustomed to the proceedings of Parliament
will readily fill up the voids. Those who are not so familiar, may find the
following explanation useful, but will find the whole formule set out at
length in the "Contents."

The names which immediately follow the title of a Bill are those of the
Peers or hon. Members who have charge of the Bill.

The numbers which are added at stages of Bills are the official numbers
of the prints and reprints ordered at each stage, and, with the Statute, will
enable the reader to follow all the changes the Bill has undergone.

The entries-Moved, "That the Bill be now read 2;" Amendt.
"this day six months; " Question put, "That now,' &c."-indicate the
usual form of raising the issue-namely, "That the word 'now' stand
part of the Question."

"The Ballot, Amendt. on Committee of Supply' indicates that
the Question was raised by means of an Amendment moved on the
Motion (after the Order of the Day for the House to go into Committee
of Supply had been read), "That Mr. Speaker do now leave the Chair.”
In this case the issue is formally raised by the Motion "To leave out from
the word 'That' to the end of the Question, in order to add " other words.
The decision is taken on the Question, "That the words proposed to be
left out stand part of the Question."

The Nos. added to the "Parliamentary Papers" are in most cases those
given in the Commons' "List of Papers for Sale."
