§ MR. HOZIER (Lanarkshire, S.)asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether he can make arrangements whereby bills of exchange may be stamped in Glasgow?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. GOSCHEN) (St. George's, Hanover Square)The arrangement contemplated by my hon. Friend's Question would involve a considerable expenditure on a separate stamping establishment at Glasgow—an expenditure which could not be compensated by saving elsewhere. I am not convinced that the practical inconvenience of the present system is sufficiently great to justify the expense proposed.
