HC Deb 08 February 1895 vol 30 c297
MR. T. B. CURRAN (Kilkenny)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he can agree to the Motion for Papers on New South Wales (Legislative Council), standing in the name of the Member for South Sligo?

MR. SYDNEY BUXTON

I regret that we are not able to assent to the Motion of my hon. Friend. In reply to an address of the Legislative Council, requesting publication, the Secretary of State considered that the correspondence was of such a nature that it would not be expedient in the public interest to publish it. When my hon. Friend put down his Motion the matter was again considered, but we still hold that the publication under the circumstances would be inexpedient.
