§ DR. BREWERasked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether the Government are prepared to contribute to all Bates in respect of Government property as they now do to the Poor Rate?
§ MR. BAXTER, in reply, said, Her Majesty's Government did not propose to contribute to all rates in respect of Government property as they now did to the poor rate. They would not modify their present practice until Parliament should have expressed an opinion upon the general question of making Government property liable to rates.
