HC Deb 01 December 1882 vol 275 c498

MR. TREVELYAN moved— That there he laid before the House, a Copy of Letter, dated the 19th day of October 1882, from the Irish Land Commissioners to the Chief Secretary for Ireland, dealing with the question of the Valuers recently attached to each Sub-Commission. The right hon. Gentleman explained that this was the Correspondence from which he quoted in the late debate.

MR. T. P. O'CONNOR

asked whether the right hon. Gentleman had got the permission of the Land Commissioners, which he understood had previously been refused, for the presentation of this letter to the House?

MR. TREVELYAN

replied that he had not got their permission; but after the course he had taken for the purpose of explaining their conduct, he thought that permission need not be asked.

Question put.

The House divided:—Ayes 153; Noes 14: Majority 139.—(Div. List, No. 405.)

Copy presented accordingly; to lie upon the Table, and to be printed. [No. 416.]
