HC Deb 24 April 1896 vol 39 c1645
MR. J. C. FLYNN (Cork, N.)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he will communicate with the Chairman of the Royal Commission on the Financial Relations of Great Britain and Ireland, with a view to arranging for the publication and issue to Members at an early day of the Draft Report of the late Mr. Childers?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

I have no power over the action of the Commission, nor can I require it to make arrangements for the publication of Mr. Childers' Report. In my own opinion piecemeal reports are likely to prove inconvenient.

MR. LOUGH (Islington, W.)

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Commission have decided to publish the Report immediately?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

I am not aware of that.
