MR. E. ROBERTSON (Dundee)

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, When the Reports from Consular Agents in the United States on the Homestead and Exemption Laws are likely to be published?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE (Sir JAMES FERGUSSON) (Manchester, N.E.)

As soon as the MSS. were returned by the hon. Member, to whom, on their receipt, they were sent for perusal, orders were given that they should be at once printed and presented to Parliament. The Papers are already in type, and will be in the hands of Members in the course of a few days.
