§ MR. DILLWYNsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, When the Patent Law Commission will make their Report?
LORD STANLEYsaid, as he was Chairman of the Commission, he would answer the Question. He hoped to have the Report ready about Whitsuntide. It would have been ready before now, but it had been delayed through the necessity of sending communications to the Chambers of Commerce and other public bodies who had to make their Returns, some of which had not yet been received.
