HC Deb 03 August 1897 vol 52 cc229-30
MR. J. F. HOGAN (Tipperary, Mid.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, as there is now little likelihood of the Papers in connection with the recent conferences at the Colonial Office becoming effectively available before the close of the Session, he would have any objection to briefly summarising the more important of the decisions and recommendations arrived at, having regard also to the fact that various unauthorised versions of the proceedings in conference with the Colonial Premiers have been circulated?

MR. CHAMBERLAIN

A summary of the proceedings has been laid on the Table and will be distributed shortly.
