§ MR. W. O. STANLEYbegged to ask the right hon. Gentleman if he would lay upon the Table of the House the Report made since last Session by the Visiting Commissioners in Lunacy as to the state of Haydock Lodge Lunatic Asylum, that the House might be informed of the causes which had produced the great and unusual mortality there, and also under what provisions the license to that Asylum had been renewed?
§ SIR G. GREYreplied, that he had received not very long ago a full report from the Commissioners of Lunacy on the subject to which the hon. Gentleman referred, and that he was prepared to lay it on the Table of the House at an early period. The report was accompanied by a letter from the Commissioners, expressing a strong 615 opinion that it was not desirable to lay the whole of the evidence upon the Table of the House. They conceived that the evidence contained particulars which were not necessary to their inquiry, and that their report would put the House fully in possession of the grounds on which their opinion had been formed.
