HC Deb 03 April 1882 vol 268 cc647-8
MR. HEALY

asked when Returns relating to the surrender of arms in Ireland, and the amounts paid for the same, would be laid upon the Table of the House?

THE SOLICITOR GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. PORTER)

said, in the absence of the right hon. Gentleman the Chief Secretary for Ireland, he would make it his business to procure the information asked for.

VISCOUNT SANDON

suggested to the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education that, in view of the lateness of the hour—1.50—it might be more convenient if his Statement were postponed until to-morrow.

MR. MUNDELLA

said, he thought it best to proceed, not with standing the delay which had taken place. He should, however, address the Committee as briefly as was consistent with clearness.

Main Question, "That Mr. Speaker do now leave the Chair," put, and agreed to.
