HC Deb 08 March 1880 vol 251 c557
MR. M'LAREN

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, What course Her Majesty's Government intends to pursue with regard to the Census Bill for Scotland?

MR. ASSHETON CROSS,

in reply, said, the Census Bills for England and Scotland would already have been on the Table but for a desire on the part of the Government to make the Census uniform for the whole of the United Kingdom. In a week or so he would probably be able to give further information on the subject.
