HC Deb 14 December 1893 vol 19 cc1373-4
MR. BRODIE HOARE (Hampstead)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies whether it is true that the Government have decided to establish a gold standard in British Honduras; and, if so, whether he will inform the House what steps they propose to take to give effect to their decision?

MR. S. BUXTON

Her Majesty's Government have decided to establish a gold standard in British Honduras, and are now waiting for the views of the Colonial Government before formulating the details of the measures to be taken to give effect to their decision.
