§ COLONEL SYKESasked the Lord Advocate when the report of the Commission 858 on the Aberdeen Universities would be laid on the table of the House; whether he had any Bill upon the subject in preparation; and whether he was prepared to bring in any general measure on the subject of Scottish University Reform?
§ THE LORD ADVOCATEsaid, that he was at present engaged in the preparation of a measure for the improvement of the Scotch Universities. At present he could not name any day for its introduction; but it would not be long before he should bring it in. As regarded the Report of the Commission, it would be ready to be presented in the course of next week, and until then it would be premature for him to say whether he would submit any measure founded on it to Parliament.
