[Compare Dicey, _Law of Constitution_ (7th ed.), pp.
111-114.] [75] The appeal to the English Privy Council, both under clauses 19, _22_, and 23 of the Bill, appears to be in each case an appeal to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.
[The particular provisions contained in the Home Rule Bill, 1893, as to an appeal to the Privy Council, etc., are now of little direct importance, but they are worth study as showing the extreme difficulty of providing any satisfactory body for acting as a Court called upon to decide the numerous constitutional questions, as to the legislative power of an Irish Parliament, which must be raised under any Home Rule Act whatever.] [76] See Bill, clause 23.
