HC Deb 04 July 1889 vol 337 c1465
MR MACNEILL

Will the Select Committee upon Royal Grants be empowered, under the terms of the Reference, to inquire into and Report upon the expediency, or otherwise, of abolishing the secrecy which now exclusively attaches to the last wills and testaments of Royal personages?

* MR. W. H. SMITH

The subject to which the hon. Member refers will not be in any respect within the reference to the Committee, nor will it arise out of the proposal which the Government will have to make to the House.
