HC Deb 15 June 1891 vol 354 cc390-1
MR. O. V. MORGAN (Battersea)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Trea- sury whether he will cause to be printed and circulated among Members of Parliament a Copy of the Memorial from the Ceylon Association in London to the Secretary of State for the Colonies on the subject of the Military contribution to be paid by Ceylon to the Imperial Government?

*THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH,) Strand, Westminster

was understood to say that it would not be convenient at the present moment to print and circulate among Members of Parliament a Copy of the Memorial referred to in the question, as Her Majesty's Government had not had a full opportunity of considering it.
