HC Deb 09 February 1897 vol 46 c17
MR. CRILLY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he will agree to the Return relating to Pawnbrokers in Ireland, which stands on this day's Paper?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

It is necessary to make local inquiries as to the practicability of furnishing the Return referred to, and as there has not been sufficient time to complete those inquiries since the Notice appeared on the Paper this morning, I must ask the hon. Member to repeat the Question on Thursday next.
