§ MR. MACDONAI beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether the Departmental Committee, appointed to take evidence as to floating derelicts, has yet finished its inquiry; if so, when will its Report be presented to the House?
§ THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. BRYCE,) Aberdeen, S.I believe that the Committee have finished taking evidence, but that they have not yet been able to complete their Report. I much doubt whether it will be possible to present it before the end of the Session.
