HC Deb 05 June 1885 vol 298 c1343
SIR GEORGE CAMPBELL

said, he had seen on the Paper to-day for the first time a Notice with regard to a grant of £30,000 to Princess Beatrice as a marriage portion. He wished to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he would promise not to bring on that subject to-night at an unusually late hour?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. CHILDERS)

That is the customary Resolution following upon the grant of £6,000 a-year to Her Royal Highness. It has been put down for Committee to-night, and I trust there will be no objection to proceeding with it.
