§ MR. VILLIERS STUARTasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether he will recommend to Her Majesty's Government the re-appointment of the Select Committee on the Labourers' (Ireland) Act in the Autumn Session, so that the report may be completed in time for the introduction of an amending Bill in February next?
§ THE SOLICITOR GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. WALKER) (for Mr. TREVELYAN)I am informed that it is contrary to precedent to give a definitive answer to this Question as it affects the action of the Government next Session; and the recommendation of the Committee will, of course, be carefully considered.
