§ MR. KNOXI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether, pending a Measure for the settlement of the Irish University question, he will postpone making any appointment to the vacant Presidentship of the Cork Queen's College?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURThe passing of a Measure for the settlement of the Irish University question still belongs to the region of contingency. The course proposed by the hon. and learned Member is not, in my opinion, one which it would be practicable to pursue.
