Parliamentary Intelligence on Address and Proclamation debate
The House debated the Royal Proclamation and parliamentary reform as Lord Lauderdale and others warned against reformist excesses. Ministers defended the Proclamation and the plan to address the King, while Grenville and Stormont urged caution and preservation of the constitution. The debate highlighted fears of insurrection, military use, and the danger of a broad reform movement, with the House adjourning after voting for the Address.
