HC Deb 14 June 1883 vol 280 c538
SIR HENRY HOLLAND

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he will lay upon the Table of the House a Copy of the Despatch of the Governor of Ceylon upon the question of the allowance which, in his judgment, was requisite for the Egyptian exiles in Ceylon?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

I stated on Monday, in reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Northampton (Mr. Labouchere), that communications on this subject are still proceeding; and, pending a settlement, I cannot give any undertaking as to the publication of the despatch of the Governor of Ceylon.
