HC Deb 31 July 1857 vol 147 c811
SIR JOHN PAKINGTON

said, he wished to move an Address to the Crown for the appointment of a Commission of Inquiry on the subject of Education, and as he believed the proposal would not be opposed by the Government, and the discussion was therefore likely to occupy a very short time, he would beg to ask whether the noble Lord at the head of the Government would afford him an opportunity of bringing forward the Motion on an early day—say Thursday or Friday next?

VISCOUNT PALMERSTON

said, he would consult his colleagues, and would answer the question of the right hon. Gentleman in the course of the evening.
