HC Deb 24 March 1890 vol 342 c1692
MR. ROWNTREE (Scarborough)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury if he can now say what is the total cost of the Special Commission, 1888, which the Government propose to defray out of the National Exchequer; and if any further Vote is required at what time and in what manner it will be brought before the House?

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. JACKSON,) Leeds, N.

I am not able to say, until the accounts for the current financial year are made up, what the total payments from the Exchequer on account of the Special Commission will be. I do not anticipate that any further Vote will be required.
