I have settled the Bill relating to British Columbia according
to my instructions. Care must be taken that the Bill is
sufficiently wide to cover any order in Council intended to be
made in pursuance thereof.
Minutes by CO staff
Sir F. Rogers
I suppose this Bill as settled may now proceed. Ld Granville has (I think) decided to introduce it in the Lords.

I annex the draft Order in Council. I think the proposed Act is
wide enough to cover the different provisions of the Order.
