Parliament in July debate on Marriage and Debtor Bills
The Lords debated the Marriage Registration and the Imprisonment for Debt bills. Petitions from clergy opposed the Marriage Bill while the Chancellor argued for reform to curb abuses in debt imprisonment, proposing a system of commissioners and broader creditor security. The House adjourned after lengthy remarks and motions on readings and committee dates.
