June proceedings show Lords and Commons debating tobacco duties and repeal plans, with summaries of fiscal policy, grants to the Duke of Clarence, and Irish church and education funding. MPs clash over arrears, grants, and the scope of fiscal relief amid ongoing Irish estimates and justice inquiries.
The house approved resolutions totaling 414,000 for Ireland board of works extraordinary expenses and 16,700 for stationery and other disbursements in Ireland offices. Earlier votes included 42,500 for widening Dubting streets and 784 for certain Treland public officers. Objections were noted to principle of certain grants and a withdrawal followed. The session adjourned in the afternoon.
In the House of Lords on June 19 discussions centered on the 1790 patent for exclusive stationery supply to Ireland and the government’s purchases. Lord Lansdown noted numerous papers on the foreign slave trade, delaying motions, while Lord Dar n Luck presented concerns about inflated charges, fraud in bookbinding, and potential abuse of the King's stationery patent. He urged a government inquiry and even repeal of the patent, citing a ten year total of about 225,606 pounds and suspected overpricing.
