HC Deb 01 April 1897 vol 48 c300
MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, when appointing the new Royal Commission on the financial relations between Great Britain and Ireland, the Government have any objection to the appointment, or intend to appoint on the Commission the Lord Chief Justice of England or Lord Morris, both of whom are eminent English Judges?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

I am not in a position at the present time to make any announcement as to the names to be proposed for the Commission to inquire into the financial relations.
