HC Deb 14 February 1893 vol 8 c1372
MR. MATHER (Lancashire, S.E., Gorton)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture whether he has received the Report of the Departmental Committee appointed to inquire into the condition of the Ordnance Survey; and when the Report will be laid upon the Table of the House?

MR. CHAPLIN (Lincolnshire, Sleaford)

I will also ask the right hon. Gentleman if he can say when the Report of the Departmental Committee on the Ordnance Survey will be laid upon the Table?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE (Mr. H. GARDNER,) Essex, Saffron Walden

I received the Report, in question on the 3rd instant, and it has now been laid upon the Table. I hope it will be in the hands of hon. Members in the course of a few days. I should like to take this opportunity of expressing my obligations to the hon. Baronet the Member for the Tewkesbury Division, my hon. Friends the Members for the Eccles and Gorton Divisions, and the other Members of the Committee, for the great care and attention which they have given to the investigation of a difficult mid complicated subject.
