§ SIR G. BADEN-POWELLI beg-to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether there would be any objection to a Return giving the Correspondence between Her Majesty's Stationery Office and Messrs. Eyre and Spottiswoode, on the subject of the present contract for the sole agency for the sale of Government publications commencing 1887?
§ THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Sir J. T. HIBBERT,) OldhamI do not think it would be right, or desirable in the public interest, to publish such Correspondence between the Stationery Office and a contractor upon the working of his contract.
§ SIR G. BADEN-POWELLI shall raise the question on the Estimates.
