HC Deb 27 February 1893 vol 9 c433
MR. JAMES LOWTHER

I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will lay upon the Table of the House a list of the various Temporary Commissions which are included in the Supplementary Estimate under the heading "Commissions not specifically provided for," the original Estimate for which was £8,000, but for which an additional sum of £2,700 is included in the Supplementary Estimate?

SIR J. T. HIBBERT

The Commissions chargeable to sub-head S of the Temporary Commissions Vote, 1892–93, number 27. I hold in my hand a list of them in the order in which they appear in the Treasury Books, and in which they will be set forth in the Appropriation Account of the Vote, and I shall be prepared to show it to my right hon. Friend if he desires to see it.

MR. JAMES LOWTHER

May I take it the Evicted Tenants Commission is one of the 27?

SIR J. T. HIBBERT

Yes.

MR. CARSON (Dublin University)

How much of the sum of £8,000 has been paid away in the expenses of the Evicted Tenants Commission?

SIR J. T. HIBBERT

The estimated cost of the Evicted Tenants Commission is £2,170.

MR. JAMES LOWTHER

Is it all paid?

SIR J. T. HIBBERT

No, Sir.
