PARLIAMENT.
In the House Mr Buddo deplored the mudslinging which had been going on all the session. If the Government, after being some months in office could find nothing more damaging to the previous Government than had been the case, it was time this style of argument ceased.
Mr Bell, replying, admitted Mr Jones had no legal claim against the Government, but the payment of £3OOO was purely ex gratia. The House agreed to report to tne Government for consideration.
The Country Telephone Bill, enabling County Councils to erect and maintain telephones by way of special loan was put through all stages.
The House went into committee on the Supplementary Estimates and adjourned at 1.10 till 2.30.
LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.
The Council met at 12 and went into committee on the “Washing-up” Bill, which was eventually read a third time and passed.
