HC Deb 07 April 1893 vol 10 c1714
MR. MACARTNEY (Antrim, S.)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury what are the separate sums which make up the item "Railways, £141,000, in. Class 1 of the Statement of Estimated Expenditure on page 4 of Parliamentary Paper, No. 91 of this Session (showing the effect of the financial proposals in the Government of Ireland Bill as regards Ireland)?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. E. GLADSTONE, Edinburgh, Midlothian)

The particulars are these: The original Estimate for Railways, Ireland, was £107,371. A Supplementary Estimate was £34,786, making £142,157. But there is a small anticipated saving of £1,157, which reduces this to £141,000. If the hon. Member wishes I will supply him with the figures in writing.

VISCOUNT CRANBORNE (Rochester)

May I ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant whether he can give the House any information as to when the 5th Schedule of the Home Rule Bill will be produced?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. J. MORLEY, Newcastle-upon-Tyne)

I answered a similar question yesterday. I am at work upon it. "I scorn delights and live laborious days" in order that it may be produced on Monday.
