258 SPECIAL PRACTICE FOR PRESENT SESSION.

larged plans and sections of such parts of the works as are on the tidal lands within the ordinary spring tides, on a scale of not less than twenty feet to an inch, with the dimensions figured thereon, shall, on or before the 30th day of November, be deposited in the Board of Admiralty.

It was ordered, That the said order be a Standing Order of this House.

2. That the promoters of all bills for the formation or improvement of harbours, docks, piers, RAILWAYS, bridges, weirs, &c., and for all works and inclosures on tidal lands within the ordinary spring tides, and also of bills for bridges over or tunnels under navigable rivers already introduced this session, shall forthwith send to the Board of Admiralty a copy of such parts of the plans, sections, and books of reference as they have deposited in the office of any clerk of the peace, or sheriff clerk, on or before the 30th day of November immediately preceding this session of Parliament, as are on the tidal lands within the ordinary spring tides.

The same evening, a special committee was agreed to be forthwith appointed (on motion of Mr. Morrison),

"To inquire whether, without discouraging legitimate enterprise, conditions may not be embodied in Railway Acts better fitted than those hitherto inserted in them to promote and secure the interests of the public."

The result of the investigations made by this committee will naturally be looked forward to with considerable anxiety by the vast classes interested in railway property.
