Collectanea Speaker Manner's Clerk's fee-augmenting Job
Finance and Judicial Procedure
Lords' Debate March 18.
Per Chancellor, Solicitor General for his
miniature Reforms and sham Reform preferred two
Bills to one. Now note the consequence of this
preference, for which no reason is given.
The expense is doubled: fees to House of Commons'
Clerks and I suppose House of Lords' Clerks doubled.
Not long ago, on the occasion of plates some improvements
– i.e. diminution of abuses in the business of the Stamp Office –
at the suggestion of one of the functionaries two sets of
arrangements so little connected that at first they were
cast into twi Bills, were put together into one: each Bill
costing some hundreds of pounds. I could put you into the way of
getting appropriate evidence of this.
Here is an instance of the importance of doing
away with the fee-gathering system that everlasting source
of extortion and peculation and waste.
Here may be seen one cause of the preference
given to Consolidation over Codification.
Mr Peel in his famous speech of the 19
Feby. (was it not?) declared against technicalities.
Under his nose comes forth a Bill drawn
by the Solicitor-General in which as appears by the
above-mentioned speech of the Chancellor the two first
proposed amendments are made by so many needless
technicalities applied in the shape of lies.
1. Instead of saying that if a proposed Defendant
omitted to enter upon his defence namely by
appointing a Solicitor and thereupon going on with
the suit the Suit should go on notwithstanding,
that which ordered ordained to be done is to enter to upon the
records of the Court that the individual in question
