§ MR. WYLDsaid, he rose to move for a copy of the instructions given by the Comptroller of the Stationery Office for the compilation and publication of a map of the Probate Districts of England. He should also be glad if he could obtain a copy of any correspondence which may have passed between the Comptroller of the Stationery Office and the Judge of the Probate Court, as to the alteration of the boundaries of the Probate Districts defined by the Act 20 & 21 Vict, c. 77, and the authority for the alteration in the bounda- 162 ries of the Probate Districts in the map said to be compiled by order of the Stationery Office.
§
Motion made and Question proposed,—
That there be laid before this House, Copy of the Instructions given by the Comptroller of the Stationery Office for the compilation and publication of a Map of the Probate Districts of England.'
§ MR. G. A. HAMILTONsaid, no such instructions had ever been issued, and no such correspondence as was referred to had taken place. The alteration referred to by the hon. Gentleman had been made by the publisher on his own authority, without any reference to the Stationery Office.
§ MR. WYLDsaid, that in the maps issued to the different courts the boundaries were wrongly laid down. When the vote for the Stationery Office came before the House he would call attention to the case.
§ Motion by leave withdrawn.
