HC Deb 29 May 1891 vol 353 cc1355-6
(6.57.) MR. BRYCE (Aberdeen, S.)

I wish to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he can, before Monday, lay on the Table any further Papers con- nected with the Behring Sea seal fishery dispute, showing the present position of the question?

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

If we have the consent of the United States Government, which we have asked for by telegraph, those Papers will be presented and circulated, I hope, on Monday, but if not circulated they will be in the Vote Office before the Bill is taken. The Bill will, I hope, be circulated tomorrow.
