HC Deb 18 April 1882 vol 268 cc876-7
SIR ALEXANDER GORDON

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether he will lay upon the Table of the House a Copy of the Treasury Minute, of 1841, requiring the Board of Manufactures and the Board of Fishery in Scotland to appoint a joint secretary to carry on the duties of the two Boards?

LORD FREDERICK CAVENDISH

, in reply, said, that the Treasury Warrant appointing a joint establishment for the Boards of Fisheries and Manufactures in Scotland was a purely formal document, and did not appear to him to be of sufficient interest to be laid on the Table; but if his hon. and gallant Friend would like to see it, he should be very happy to show it him.
