HC Deb 16 May 1890 vol 344 cc1114-5
DR. CAMERON

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it is true, as stated in a Reuter's telegram from St. John's of the 14th instant, that a Joint Committee of both Houses of the Newfoundland Legislature has passed an Address to Her Majesty, protesting against the action of the Imperial Government on the fisheries question; whether Her Majesty's Government have yet been made aware of the terms of the Address referred to; and whether it will be laid upon the Table of this House?

*SIR J. FERGUSSON

Her Majesty's Government have not as yet received information on the subject. There will probably be no objection to laying before the House any such Address when received.
