HC Deb 15 March 1900 vol 80 c939
MR. WILLIAM JOHNSTON

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether influential representations have been made from Belfast to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, as to the satisfaction with which the inhabitants of that city would receive a visit from Her Majesty during the Queen's stay in Ireland; and whether the matter will be dutifully laid before Her Majesty, with a view to ascertain the Queen's pleasure concerning the desired visit to the capital of Ulster.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

Her Majesty's Ministers are offering no advice to Her Majesty in regard to her movements during her approaching visit to Ireland, which, as my hon. friend knows, is of a private character.
