HC Deb 19 June 1899 vol 72 cc1487-8
MR. LLOYD MORGAN (Carmarthen, W.)

I beg to ask the hon. Member representing the Charity Commissioners whether he can state the reason for the delay in the publication of the Reports of the Assistant Charity Commissioners concerning the charities of the borough of Carmarthen, and of the parish of Trellochar-Bettws in the county of Carmarthen.

THE PARLIAMENTARY CHARITY COMMISSIONER (Mr. GRANT LAWSON,) York N.R., Thirsk

The reason for the delay in the publication of the Report on the Charities in the Borough of Carmarthen is that the application made for the production of certain documents in the case of a grant to one particular charity has not yet been complied with. In all other respects the Report is ready to be laid on the Table of the House. With regard to the charities in the parish of Trelloch-ar-Bettws the Report has been delayed by the difficulty experienced in obtaining full information respecting the administration of the charities. The Report as to this parish was laid on the Table of this House on June 8th.
