§ SIR GEORGE CAMPBELL (Kirkcaldy, & c.)asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies, If he will lay upon the Table the Papers regarding the compensations for loss of office in the Transvaal, showing the grounds on which they were awarded, and also the grounds on which subsequent offers of service were declined?
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Sir HENRY HOLLAND) (Hampstead)Sir William Gurdon's Report, to which I referred for particulars of these cases last Tuesday night, was confidential, and I therefore only offered to show it to the hon. Member; but I will send him extracts from it which bear upon the question of these pensions, and I hope this will satisfy him. But if he should desire any further information, and will let me know, I will endeavour to give it to him.
