HC Deb 04 July 1898 vol 60 c947
MR. DILLON

I wish to ask whether the Government will grant the Return which stands in my name on the Paper, in regard to the Royal University (Ireland)?

MR. ATKINSON

I am informed by the Secretary of the Royal University that the preparation of a Return, such as suggested, would occupy a period of three months, and would, moreover, necessitate the employment of a special staff. Under the circumstances it does not appear, upon the information at present before me, that the compilation of the Return would be commensurate with the expenditure of time and money required for its preparation.
