HC Deb 12 March 1895 vol 31 c871
MR. L. P. HAYDEN

On behalf of Mr. Field, I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether the total cost of the Bovine Tuberculosis Commission has yet been ascertained; whether the details of expenditure for experiments, for professional services, and for printing have been furnished, and what is the amount; and whether there is any time limit placed on the proceedings of this Committee?

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Sir J. T. HIBBERT,) Oldham

The total cost of the Tuberculosis Commission may be put approximately at £7,500. This includes a sum of £4,672 for special scientific investigations (covering experiments and professional services) and an estimated expenditure of £660 on printing. I understand that the proceedings of the Commission will not extend beyond the present financial year.
