§ MR. DALYI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he will advise that the Royal Commission appointed to inquire into the Irish Land Acts shall not sit until Parliament meets next year, in order that the tenants may have their interests protected by their representatives in the house of Commons?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYThe hon. Gentleman is aware that the House, although it has complete control over any action which the Government or anybody else might endeavour to take on the Report of the Royal Commission, cannot interfere with this investigation, and, therefore, it is immaterial whether the House is sitting or not when it is resumed.
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYI have no information upon that point. The Commissioners may, of course, sit in such place as they may think will be most conducive to the progress of the investigation.
