HC Deb 26 February 1901 vol 89 c1181
* SIR E. ASHMEAD-BARTLETT (Sheffield, Ecclesall)

I beg to ask Mr. Attorney General whether His Majesty's Government propose to prosecute an association called the Conciliation Committee, which has publicly circulated charges against British officers and soldiers based on statements alleged to ! have been made by Lieutenant Morrison, but the accuracy of which that officer has denied.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir ROBERT FINLAY,) Inverness Burghs

I have no material no which it would be proper for me to express an opinion on this question even if it were desirable that I should do so.
