ENGROSSING AND ENROLLING OF BILLS.
"Die Jovis, 8° Februarii, 1849.
"Resolved, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled,-
1. "That it is expedient to discontinue the present system of engrossing, and to alter the present system of Enrolling Bills, and to make such provisions in lieu thereof as are hereinafter mentioned.
2. That this House is prepared to agree to the following arrangements, if agreed to by the other House of Parliament."
I. That in lieu of being engrossed, every Bill shall be fair printed immediately after it shall have been passed in the House in which it originated, and that such fair printed Bill shall be sent to the other House, as the Bill so passed, and shall (subject to the regulation next hereinafter mentioned) be dealt with by that House and its Officers in the same manner in which Engrossed Bills are now dealt with.
II. That on its return to the House in which it originated, without Amendments (or if amended, after the Amendments shall have been settled and agreed to), it shall be fair printed by the Queen's printer, who shall furnish a fair print thereof on vellum to the House of Lords, before the Royal Assent, and likewise a duplicate of such fair print, also on vellum.
III. That one of such fair prints of each Bill shall be duly authenticated by the proper Officers of each House, as the Bill to which both Houses have agreed.
IV. That the Royal Assent shall be endorsed in the usual form on such fair print so authenticated, which shall be deposited in the Record Tower, in lieu of the present Engrossing.
V. That the Copies promulgated in the first instance
by the Queen's Printer shall be impressions from the same form as the deposited copy.
VI. That the Master of the Rolls shall, upon being duly authorised in that behalf, receive in lieu of the Copies of Public General Acts as now enrolled, the hereinbefore-mentioned duplicate fair print of each Public General Bill, to be held for the same purpose, and subject to the same conditions for and upon which the Enrolled Acts are now received and held by
him.
VII. That it is expedient, with a view to economy, convenience, and despatch, and to the diminution of
the chance of errors, that one Printer should print the Public General Bills for both Houses; and that inasmuch as the Queen's Printer is by virtue of his office bound to print the Acts, it would be advisable for the attainment of the before mentioned objects, that the Queen's Printer should be employed by both Houses to print the Public General Bills.
