HC Deb 22 July 1890 vol 347 c514

Considered in Committee.

(In the Committee.)

(4.10.) Motion made, and Question proposed, That it is expedient to authorise the payment, out of moneys to be provided by Parliament, of all expenses that may be incurred for the purposes of the Census under any Acts of the present Session for taking the Census of England and Wales, Scotland and Ireland.

MR. SEXTON

I presume that the Treasury have arrived at an estimate of the expenditure. I should, therefore, like to know what will be the proportion for each of the three Kingdoms.

(4.11.) MR. JACKSON

I am afraid that I cannot give the information without notice. I am not sure whether an estimate has yet been made of the full cost. The amount likely to be required in the course of the present year has at present only been estimated.

MR. SEXTON

I will put a question down for Thursday.

Question put, and agreed to.

Resolution to be reported To-morrow.
