HC Deb 26 February 1872 vol 209 c1025
MR. PIM

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, If he will lay before this House the nominal list of landowners which it is stated to be the intention of the Government to furnish; and, if it will extend to the counties of Ireland and Scotland as well as those of England?

MR. BRUCE

, in reply, said, it was intended to obtain such lists by means of the clerks of Unions in England, and that the Lord Advocate was considering how a similar Return might be obtained with regard to Scotland. It was also under consideration how a similar Return might be obtained with regard to Ireland. When the Returns were completed they would be laid upon the Table of the House.
