HC Deb 27 July 1882 vol 272 c1975
SIR JOHN LUBBOCK

asked the First Lord of the Treasury, When the Government would lay upon the Table the Report of the Scientific Committee on the Channel Tunnel; and, whether they would also give the Memoranda of the military authorities upon the said Report?

MR. CHILDERS

My hon. Friend cannot have been in the House when on two occasions I have answered this Question on behalf of my right hon. Friend the First Minister. The Report of the Scientific Committee and the Memorandum of the military authorities will be shortly laid on the Table, with the decision at which Her Majesty's Government hope to arrive, in a few days. The Papers are very voluminous, and are still with the printers.
