§ MR. THOROLD ROGERS (Southwark, Bermondsey)asked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether it is true that the Lords of the Treasury have refused to incur the cost of collecting evidence by the Ensilage Commission, which evidence has been printed and circulated among Members by order of the House?
§ THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. HENRY H. FOWLER) (Wolverhampton, E.)The inquiry of the private Ensilage Commission, of which Lord Walsingham was Chairman, was not an official investigation; and the Treasury, therefore, did not feel justified in contributing to its cost.
