HC Deb 28 February 1887 vol 311 c703
MR. FRASER-MACKINTOSH (Inverness-shire)

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether he will lay upon the Table a Return showing the annual Revenue and Expenditure of the Office of Sasines, Edinburgh, from 1876–7 to 1886–7 (in continuation of the Return made in the year 1877)?

THE SECRETARY (MR. JACKSON) (Leeds, N.)

I stated on Tuesday last, in answer to the hon. Member for Central Edinburgh (Mr. M'Ewan), that a separate account is not kept of the amount received in fees from each branch of the General Register House; and I am, therefore, unable to give the Return of the revenue and expenditure of the Sasines Office which the hon. Gentleman asks me to furnish.
