HC Deb 18 February 1898 vol 53 cc1046-7
MR J. C. FLYNN (Cork, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when the report of the Fry (Land) Commission will be placed in the hands of Members of this House; will the report of the evidence be issued at the same time; and whether he can count for the delay in issuing the report and evidence to Members?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Sir MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY,) Lancashire, N., Blackpool

I hope the report will be issued on Monday or Tuesday morning at the latest. There does not appear to have been undue delay. The order for printing was only given on the 12th, and a first batch of copies was sent off from Dublin last night. I have no information as to the minutes of evidence which have not yet reached me.
