MR. CONYBEARE (Cornwall, Camborne)

asked the First Lord of the Treasury whether he can now state the terms of the reference which he will propose for the Royal Commission on Mining Royalties; and how soon he proposes that it shall be constituted and commence its labours?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

No, Sir; I am not in a position to state the terms of reference now.

MR. CONYBEARE

When will the right hon. Gentleman be able to state them?

*MR. W. H. SMITH

I am sorry that at present I am unable to say.
