§ MR. FINDLATERasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Upon what day he proposes to take the Second Reading of the Land Purchase (Ireland) Bill; and, whether on the Second Reading the Government will be prepared to communicate to the House the names of the two Commissioners proposed to be appointed?
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Sir WILLIAM HART DYKE)The Bill is down for second reading on Friday next. I cannot give any such undertaking as that suggested in the second paragraph of this Question. On the contrary, I do not think an announcement of the kind should be made until a much later stage of the Bill has been reached than the second reading.
