§ MR. LYON PLAYFAIRasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether the Government has considered the recommendations of the Commission for Scientific Instruction and for the Advancement of Science; and, whether they propose in the present Session to introduce measures for carrying out any of those recommendations?
MR. ASSHETON CROSS, in reply, said, the recommendations of the Com-mission in question had been for some time under the consideration of the Government. With reference to what steps the Government proposed to take in the matter, he would rather not anticipate the statement which it would be the duty of his noble Friend the Vice President of the Council to make on the subject.
