HC Deb 02 April 1883 vol 277 c1178
MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I wish to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether he can, in view of the great interest shown by the House in the question of the ventilators on the Thames Embankment, lay on the Table the Evidence on which the Committee decided in favour of the ventilators two years ago?

MR. COURTNEY

I am not aware how that comes in my Department.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

Then I shall ask the First Lord of the Treasury. [Mr. GLADSTONE shook his head.] I do not know whom to ask.

MR. GLADSTONE

My hon. Friend and I are in the same Department.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

Then I beg to give Notice that I shall to-morrow ask the First Lord of the Treasury to whom I must put the Question.
