HC Deb 17 March 1887 vol 312 c521
MR. T. P. GILL(for Mr. CHANCE) (Kilkenny. S.)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether he will make representations to the authority having custody of the shorthand writers' original notes and transcripts of the proceedings of the Cowper Commission, to insure facilities being accorded to Members of this House to inspect such notes and transcripts so far as the same record the evidence of witnesses?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR) (Manchester, E.)

I know of no reason why I should take such an unusual course as is here suggested.
