§ MR. J. CHAMBERLAIN (Birmingham, W.)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the Government are now able to state what action they contemplate to give effect to the Report of the Commission appointed to inquire into the question of Public Works in the Crofter Districts of Scotland?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH, Strand, Westminster)The Report in question is receiving careful examination by the Secretary for Scotland in conjunction with the Chancellor of the Exchequer and myself, and we believe that we shall be in a position to submit proposals to Parliament with reference to the recommendations made by the Commissioners shortly after the re-assembling of the House.
