Resolutions on Gifts to West Indies and Lottery Clauses
The Commons resolved to seek an account of gifts and grants to parts of the West Indies seized by France under the Treaty. An instruction was proposed to restrict unlawful private lotteries and void contracts for lottery tickets formed under existing or future Acts. Also reports on Scotland's Equivalent debt and customs revenues were ordered printed after debate about computation methods and the union provisions.
