HC Deb 21 February 1893 vol 9 c52
MR. CHAPLIN (Lincolnshire, Sleaford)

I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if the deliberations of the Committee upon Indian Currency are completed; whether the Report of that Committee can be laid upon the Table before the 28th of February; and when the Motion relating to the Monetary Conference at Brussels will be considered in this House?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Sir W. HARCOURT,) Derby

The Committee upon Indian Currency are, I am informed, considering their Report, which has not yet been presented to the Secretary of State for India. I am not, therefore, in a position to give an answer as to when it will be laid on the Table; but I am informed that it will probably not be presented before the 28th of February.
